Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 ounces each) Swordfish steaks
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 2 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 large Mango, diced
- 0.5 cup Red bell pepper, diced
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 piece Jalapeño, finely diced
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 piece Lime, juiced
Instructions
In a small bowl, prepare the marinade by combining olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper.
Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
While the fish is marinating, prepare the mango salsa. In a medium bowl, combine diced mango, red bell pepper, red onion, chopped cilantro, diced jalapeño, honey, and the juice of one lime. Mix well and set aside.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the swordfish from the marinade and place the steaks on the grill. Discard the remaining marinade.
Grill the swordfish for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque in the center and has nice grill marks.
Transfer the grilled swordfish to a serving plate and let it rest for 2-3 minutes.
Top each swordfish steak with a generous scoop of mango salsa before serving. Serve immediately and enjoy!
