📝 Instructions

8 steps
1

In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped parsley, rosemary, thyme, lemon zest, salt, and black pepper to prepare the marinade.

2

Rinse the swordfish steaks under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

3

Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully coated. Cover the dish or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, up to 2 hours.

4

Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

5

Remove the swordfish steaks from the marinade and shake off any excess. Discard the used marinade.

6

Grill the swordfish steaks for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Avoid overcooking to ensure the fish remains moist and tender.

7

Transfer the cooked swordfish steaks to a serving plate and garnish with additional fresh herbs, if desired.

8

Serve the swordfish steaks immediately with lemon wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
