This quick grilled swordfish gets bright herbal flavor from an easy lemon-oregano sauce. The recipe comes from the late, legendary cookbook author Marcella Hazan, who joined Food & Wine as a contributing editor in 1992. In 2018, F&W named this dish one of our 40 best recipes ever.
Yield
6
Time
20 minutes
Ingredients
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons table salt
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano or 1 teaspoon dried
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
Freshly ground pepper
2 pounds swordfish steaks, cut 1/2 inch thick
Instructions
Step 1
Light a grill or preheat the broiler. In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice with the salt until the salt dissolves. Stir in the oregano. Slowly whisk in the olive oil and season generously with pepper.
Step 2
Grill the swordfish steaks over high heat (as close to the heat as possible), turning once, until cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer the fish to a platter. Prick each fish steak in several places with a fork to allow the sauce to penetrate. Using a spoon, beat the sauce, then drizzle it over the fish. Serve at once.
