Grilled Rosemary Lemon Swordfish

Swordfish is a special treat: Meaty and moist, it can stand up to a grill and its mild taste takes on subtle flavors nicely. Rosemary and lemon are a time-honored flavor duo and they work really well together with fish. While you could use this same recipe for tuna or salmon, we think swordfish really does it justice. Besides, fresh sword is just plain tasty. Kick it up with the zest of lemon and savory influence of rosemary and toss it on the grill and you’ve got something special. 

4 Swordfish steaks 1-inch thick

2 teaspoons fresh rosemary finely chopped

teaspoons lemon rind, grated

3 cloves pressed garlic

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1/2 teaspoons pepper

Sprigs fresh rosemary

Lemon wedges

Combine first 3 ingredients.

Place swordfish in an 11- x 7-inch baking dish; press rosemary mixture evenly on top of each steak.

Combine olive oil, lemon juice, and pepper; pour over swordfish. Cover and chill 1 hour.

Coat food rack with vegetable cooking spray; place on grill over medium-high heat (350F to 400F).

Remove swordfish steaks from marinade, discarding marinade, and place on food rack. Grill swordfish steaks, covered with grill lid, about 6 minutes on each side or until done. Garnish with the rosemary sprigs and lemon wedges.
