Cooking & Eating Swordfish
Swordfish is ideal for the grill as the meat is firm and meaty.
This texture also helps prevent the steaks from falling apart on the
grill, and is a good substitute for red meat.
A typical swordfish meal would be a simple olive oil-based
marinade, then a time on the grill, then served simply with lemon,
salt and herbs.
Cook swordfish in a similar way to a rare steak: Sear the outside
with high heat and let it stay a little rare in the middle. I cook
it about 5 minutes on one side, then 2-3 minutes on the other for an
inch-thick swordfish steak. The uneven time gives you a great sear
on one side (the side you serve facing up) while not overcooking the
swordfish.
Make sure to leave the skin on when you grill, but take it off to
serve: The skin is rubbery, but helps keep the meat moist.
