Grilled Garlic-Lemon Swordfish Recipe

A light marinade and a quick sear on the grill are all it takes to turn swordfish into a showstopper.

Ingredients:

• 2 City Seafood swordfish steaks (about 6–8 oz each)

• 3 tbsp olive oil

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• Juice and zest of 1 lemon

• 1 tsp fresh thyme (or ½ tsp dried)

• ½ tsp salt

• ¼ tsp freshly ground black pepper

• Lemon wedges and fresh parsley for serving

Instructions:

1. Marinate: In a small bowl, whisk olive oil, garlic, lemon juice, zest, thyme, salt, and pepper. Pour over swordfish steaks in a shallow dish. Marinate for 20–30 minutes in the refrigerator.

2. Preheat the Grill: Heat your grill (or grill pan) to medium-high. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.

3. Grill: Cook swordfish for 4–5 minutes per side until it reaches 145°F internally and flakes easily with a fork.

4. Serve: Plate with lemon wedges and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Pair with grilled asparagus or a simple summer salad.

🥂 Pro Tip:

Swordfish is hearty enough to hold its own with bold flavors—try serving it with a chilled Sauvignon Blanc or a citrusy Chardonnay for an effortless restaurant-quality meal at home.
