Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) swordfish steaks
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh dill
- 1 clove, minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Instructions
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
Brush both sides of the swordfish steaks with olive oil, then season evenly with salt and black pepper.
Place the swordfish steaks on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and has distinct grill marks. Remove from heat and let rest.
In a small saucepan over medium-low heat, combine Dijon mustard, lemon juice, honey, fresh dill, and garlic. Stir well.
Add the unsalted butter to the saucepan and stir until melted and combined, creating a smooth sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Drizzle the dill mustard sauce over the grilled swordfish steaks just before serving, or serve the sauce on the side for dipping.
Garnish with additional chopped dill if desired, and enjoy your Swordfish Steaks with Dill Mustard Sauce!
