Easy Grilled Swordfish with Zesty Lemon and Herbs

Recipes

Serves 4

Ingredients

  • 4 swordfish steaks (about 1 inch thick)

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 lemon, zest and juice

  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (such as parsley, basil, or dill), finely chopped

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

  • Lemon wedges (for garnish)

Directions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon zest, and fresh herbs. This will be your marinade.

  3. Brush both sides of the swordfish steaks with the marinade and season with salt and pepper.

  4. Place the swordfish steaks on the preheated grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the steaks.

  5. While grilling, baste the swordfish with the remaining marinade to keep it moist and flavorful.

  6. Once the swordfish is done, remove it from the grill and drizzle with lemon juice for an extra burst of flavor.

  7. Serve the grilled swordfish steaks with lemon wedges for a fresh, zesty finish.
