Number Of Ingredients 9

½ cup plus 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for grill
2 Tbsp. pine nuts
2 12-oz. swordfish steaks, about 1" thick
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
¼ cup red wine vinegar
2 Tbsp. drained capers, finely chopped
1 Tbsp. finely chopped oregano, plus 2 sprigs for serving
½ tsp. honey
2 large ripe heirloom tomatoes, halved, thickly sliced

Steps:

Prepare a grill for medium-high heat; lightly oil grate. Toast pine nuts in a dry small skillet over medium heat, shaking often, until golden, about 4 minutes. Let cool and set aside for serving. Pat swordfish dry and season all over with salt and pepper. Place on a rimmed baking sheet and let sit at room temperature 15 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk vinegar, capers, chopped oregano, honey, and ½ cup oil in a small bowl to combine; set marinade aside. Arrange tomatoes on a rimmed platter, overlapping slightly; set aside. Rub swordfish all over with remaining 2 Tbsp. oil and grill, undisturbed, until grill marks appear, about 4 minutes. Carefully turn over and cook on second side until fish is opaque all the way through, about 4 minutes. Transfer to reserved platter with tomatoes and top with oregano sprigs. Season with more salt and pepper. Pour reserved marinade over and let sit at least 15 minutes and up to 1 hour. To serve, scatter reserved pine nuts over.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup good olive oil
2 teaspoons minced fresh oregano leaves or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
6 (1/2-inch-thick) swordfish steaks (5 to 6 ounces each)
4 ounces baby arugula
Grated zest of 1 lemon

Steps:

Light a charcoal grill or preheat a gas or stovetop grill until very hot.
For the sauce, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Set aside.
When the grill is ready, sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper and cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes on one side, then turn and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on the other side until almost cooked through. Remove to a flat dish, prick holes in the fish with the tines of a fork, and pour the lemon sauce over the fish while it¿s still hot. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
When ready to serve, place the swordfish on dinner plates or a serving platter, pile the arugula on top, drizzle with the sauce from the fish, and sprinkle with the grated lemon zest. Serve warm.
