Grilled swordfish with barbecue sauce

6 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 pounds Swordfish fillets
1 cup Catsup
⅓ cup Lemon juice
¼ cup Oil
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 x Clove garlic, minced
½ cup Chopped onion
¼ cup Water
1 teaspoon Sugar
¼ teaspoon Hot pepper sauce
1 x Small bay leaf

Directions

Place fish in single layer in shallow baking dish.

Combine ½ cup catsup, lemon juice, oil, Worcestershire and garlic.

Pour sauce over fish.

Cover and refrigerate about 1 hour, turning fish once. Remove fish, reserving sauce. Use half of reserved sauce for brushing fish while grilling.

Combine remaining half of sauce with remaining catsup, onion, water, sugar, hot pepper sauce and bay leaf. Simmer about 20 minutes to blend flavors and thicken. Meanwhile, place fish on well-greased, hinged wire grills. (If barbecuing fish on standard grill, brush fish with oil before cooking.) Cook about 5 inches from moderately hot coals 8 minutes.

Baste with reserved sauce. Turn and cook 7 to 8 minutes longer, or until fish flakes easily when tested with fork. Brush fish with more sauce as needed during cooking. To serve, spoon hot barbecue sauce over fish.
