In a small bowl, combine olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, parsley, basil, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create the marinade.
Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Turn the steaks to ensure they are evenly coated. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with a little oil to prevent sticking.
Remove the swordfish from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard the leftover marinade.
Place the swordfish steaks on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque throughout and has nice grill marks.
Remove from the grill and let the fish rest for a few minutes. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
