Best Grilled Swordfish Steaks With Orange Thyme Sauce Recipes

GRILLED SWORDFISH STEAKS WITH CUCUMBER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Stir the cucumber, sour cream, lemon juice, and lemon zest in a small bowl until combined. Season to taste with salt, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour in the chili sauce, vinegar, and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook 5 minutes to blend the flavors. Season with black pepper, and remove from the heat.
• Brush the swordfish steaks on all sides with the 2 teaspoons of olive oil. Cook on the preheated grill until the fish is no longer translucent in the center, and easily flakes with a fork, about 3 minutes per side. Baste with the chili sauce while grilling. Serve the swordfish with lemon slices and the cucumber sauce.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH SALSA FRESCA

Steps:

• Add the tomatoes, jalapeño, onions, cilantro and lime juice to a bowl and mix to combine. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for at least an hour for all the flavors to come together.
• Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Drizzle the swordfish with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper on both sides. Place on the direct-heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move to the indirect-heat side of the grill, close the lid and cook until cooked through, another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from the grill to rest, about 5 minutes. Serve the swordfish with the salsa spooned over the top.

GRILLED SWORDFISH STEAKS WITH ASIAN BARBECUE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat grill.
• Combine plum sauce, hoisin sauce, chili paste, orange zest, orange juice, 2 tablespoons of the chopped coriander, 1 teaspoon of the minced ginger and the sesame oil. Brush some of this mixture lightly on the swordfish steaks, and set aside.
• Heat the chicken stock with the remaining ginger in a heavy saucepan. Add the greens, cover and steam just until they wilt, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, and stir in the scallions and remaining chopped coriander. Set aside.
• Brush the grill with peanut oil. Grill the swordfish steaks 2 to 3 minutes on each side, brushing with additional sauce mixture.
• Remove the greens from the saucepan, drain them well and place in the center of 4 shallow bowls. Place a swordfish steak on top of each. Add the remaining sauce mixture to the liquid in the saucepan, and quickly bring to a simmer. Drizzle it around the greens and swordfish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, garnish with coriander sprigs and serve.

GRILLED SWORDFISH A L'ORANGE

Steps:

• Rinse fish and pat dry with paper towels.
• Grate the peel from the orange using the finest side of a grater, being careful to remove only the outermost layer of skin and not any of the bitter white pith. Grate enough peel to measure 1 teaspoon. Set aside.
• Combine orange juice, lemon juice, oil and soy sauce in small bowl. Pour 1/2 of this orange juice mixture into a shallow glass dish. Add 1/2 teaspoon grated orange peel to orange juice mixture. Coat fish in mixture; cover and allow to marinate in refrigerator at least 1 hour.
• Prepare grill for direct grilling over medium heat.
• Place remaining 1/2 of orange juice mixture in small saucepan. Stir in cornstarch and remaining 1/2 teaspoon orange peel. Heat over medium-high 3-5 minutes until sauce thickens, stirring constantly; set aside.
• Remove fish from marinade; discard remaining marinade. Lightly sprinkle fish with salt and pepper to taste. Grill fish steaks, on uncovered grill, over medium coals 3-4 minutes per side until fish is opaque and flakes easily when tested with fork. Spoon orange sauce over grilled fish, and garnish with orange segments, if desired. Serve immediately.
• **Optional: If you'd like to garnish the steak with orange segments, cut off a slice from the top and bottom of the orange you grated peel from. Slice the remaining peel and pith off orange in wide strips, following curve of orange.
• Make "V-shaped" slices into center of orange just inside of membranes to remove orange segments; set aside. Discard orange membranes.

GRILLED SWORDFISH WITH SPICY TROPICAL SAUCE

• In a sauce pan, toss the orange, onion, scallion greens and pineapple along with its juice, tomato paste, garlic, cornstarch, salt, hot pepper flakes and cayenne. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Keep stirring as to not burn. Cook uncovered, for about 10 minutes. Keep stirring.
• Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered until it gets nice and thick, about 10 minutes.
• Cut the swordfish into four steaks.
• Top each steak with 1/4th of the sauce and grill, turning once, for about 12 minutes or until the steaks flake when tested with a fork.
• Note: You can prepare the sauce in advance.
