Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Swordfish steaks
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 large Tomatoes, diced
- 0.5 medium Red onion, finely chopped
- 1 piece Jalapeño, seeded and minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Lime juice
- 1 large Avocado, diced
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
In a small bowl, mix the olive oil, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to create a marinade.
Brush the marinade evenly over both sides of the swordfish steaks. Let them sit for 10-15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
While the fish is marinating, prepare the salsa. In a medium bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, red onion, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, lime juice, and diced avocado. Mix gently, being careful not to mash the avocado. Season with a pinch of salt to taste. Set aside.
Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking. Place the swordfish steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Transfer the grilled swordfish steaks to a serving platter. Top each steak with a generous spoonful of the fresh salsa.
Serve immediately with your choice of side dishes, such as rice, grilled vegetables, or a fresh green salad.
