Firm, meaty swordfish is one of the easiest and most delicious fish to cook. Here is a simple and quick recipe that is so yummy.
Ingredients
2 swordfish steaks
1tsp finely chopped ginger
1 garlic clove, crushed
Juice of 1/2 lemon
Chilli flakes
1 tbsp olive oil
Salt and pepper to season
Method
- Put the ginger and garlic in a bowl and mix together to form a paste. Add the olive oil, lemon juice and chilli flakes, then mix everything together.
- Add the swordfish steaks to the marinade and coat completely with the mixture
- Leave to marinate for 30 minutes to 1 hour.
- Preheat griddle pan until hot.
- Drain the sword fish steaks from the marinade and place on the griddle.
- Season the steaks with salt and pepper.
- Griddle them for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until opaque all the way through – this will depend on the thickness of the fillet.
Swordfish steaks are meaty and juicy. They are lovely served with mixed salad or new potatoes.

I’ve never had swordfish before. I imagine it’s very salty? My husband isn’t very adventurous when it comes to food but I think I may try this and just tell him it’s “fish”.

Didn’t think swordfish was the sort of thing that people cooked at home!! Looks very tasty though so will add this to my long list of things to learn to cook over Christmas..
