Time 23m

Number Of Ingredients 10

6 to 12 garlic cloves, peeled
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice, more for later
1 tsp coriander
3/4 tsp cumin
1/2 to 1 tsp sweet Spanish paprika
3/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
4 swordfish steaks, about 5 to 6 ounces each, from sustainable sources
Crushed red pepper, optional

Steps:

  • In a food processor, blend the garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, spices, salt and pepper for about three minutes or until well-combined forming a thick and smooth marinade.
  • Pat the swordfish steaks dry and place them in a pan (or a dish with sides to it) and apply the marinade generously on both sides and set aside for 15 minutes or so while you heat the grill.
  • Preheat a gas grill on high (be sure to oil the grates before using). When ready, grill the fish steaks on high heat for 5 to 6 minutes on one side, turn over once and grill on the other side for 3 minutes or so (the fish should flake easily, while maintain firmness. You will likely see a bit of pink on the inside, but it should cook through by the time it gets to the table).
  • Finish with a splash of fresh lemon juice and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes if you like heat. Enjoy!
