For Bouquet garni wrap 3 sprigs parsley, 1 bayleaf, 1 celery stalk sliced, and pinch of thyme in cheese-cloth. Tie shut. In an ovenproof casserole brown the swordfish in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper then add the onion, green pepper, tomatoes, mushrooms, and garlic. Saute for 10 minutes.

Cover and bake for 35-40 minutes at 350/F. Can also be simmered on the top of the stove 35-40 minutes. When fish flakes easily, remove from casserole and keep warm.
