4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
pounds Swordfish steaks
Extra virgin olive oil
1 Lemon
2 cloves Garlic, large, fine chop
Parsley, fresh, fine chop
pinch Oregano
Salt
Fresh ground black pepper
2 Celery sticks, fine chop

Directions

Begin by preparing the salmoriglio sauce. In a bowl, whisk 3TB oil, the lemon juice, garlic, celery, oregano, parsley, salt, pepper and 1TB boiling water. Beat thoroughly and set aside at room temperature. Prepare the fish steaks. Pour plenty of oil into a bowl and season lightly with salt and pepper. Immerse each steak in the mixture for 1 minute, then grill for a few minutes on each side. Be sure not to overcook the fish (timing depends upon the size of the steaks). Place the cooked swordfish on a serving platter, add the salmoriglio sauce and serve immediately.
