Time 30m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

12 ounces whole red pepper or 11 ounces chopped ready-cut pepper (2 1/2 cups)
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 large cloves garlic
12 ounces swordfish steak
8 ounces spaghetti or linguine
3 tablespoons currants
2 tablespoons pine nuts
1 1/2 tablespoons olive paste
1/8 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring water to boil in covered pot for spaghetti.
  • Wash, seed and chop pepper.
  • Heat oil in nonstick pan large enough to hold all ingredients. Reduce heat to medium-high and add oil. Add peppers, and saute until they begin to brown.
  • Mince garlic, and add to pepper as it cooks.
  • When pepper begins to soften, push to the side and add swordfish, browning on both sides. Measure at the thickest part, and cook 8 minutes to the inch.
  • Cook spaghetti according to package directions.
  • When swordfish is cooked, remove and set aside. Add currants, pine nuts and olive paste, and reduce heat to very low. Flake the swordfish, return to pan and keep warm.
  • When spaghetti is cooked, drain and stir into swordfish mixture. Season with salt and pepper, and serve.
