This straightforward and simple Lemon Rosemary Grilled Swordfish requires a couple of moments on the flame broil and the marinade is lip smacking acceptable! A sound supper made in less than 30 minutes during a furious mid-week, include me!
This is an extraordinary reliable swordfish formula I’ve been barbecuing for quite a long time. Commonly we eat a great deal of salmon and ahi fish and I haven’t seen swordfish recently, however I chose to spend too much when I saw this at the market a few days ago and it’s one of our top choices. Basic, simple and very little to it formula astute. It’s about new fixings.
This basic and simple flame broiled swordfish marinates with new rosemary, garlic, softened margarine, lemon juice and zing and afterward is barbecued rapidly. marinates with new rosemary, garlic, liquefied margarine, lemon juice and zing and afterward is barbecued rapidly.
Swordfish to me resembles a steak in the fish world. It’s thick and substantial, not a flaky fish.
It can undoubtedly be over cooked and dried out so for this I just complete 3 minutes for each side in the wake of marinating for 20 minutes (as long as an hour tops).
Ingredients
- 1 lb swordfish (2-1inch thick pieces)
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 3 cloves garlic chopped
- 1 lemon juice and zest
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp rosemary fresh, chopped
- pinch salt
Instructions
- Rinse and pat dry the swordfish steaks. Set aside.
- Crush and chop the garlic. In a small bowl whisk together the melted butter, olive oil, garlic, zest of half the lemon and the juice.
- Strip the rosemary sprigs and discard the stems. Finely dice the fresh rosemary, it should come to about 1 tablespoon or more. Add to the butter mixture and pour over the swordfish in a plastic zip bag or container to marinate for 20 minutes or up to an hour tops (See Note 1).
- Preheat grill to 500°F. Place swordfish on a cleaned grill. Drop heat to 400°F and baste with reserved marinade. I like to get grill marks on mine and 2-3 minutes per side should do it for a tender, cooked through swordfish. (See Note 2)
- Serve immediately with fresh steamed vegetables.
Notes
- The melted butter solidifies in the refrigerator after 20 minutes of marinating. I massage the swordfish and marinade a bit while in the bag before grilling and baste with reserved marinade in bag.
- You don’t want to overcook or it will be dry. We want a moist evenly cooked fish.
