Cilantro-Lime Grilled Swordfish

Ingredients

• 2 (1 pound) swordfish steaks
• 3 medium limes (juiced (about ¼ cup))
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 1 medium lime (quartered, for serving)
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Instructions

1. 1

   Place the 2 (1 pound) swordfish steaks in a shallow dish or resealable bag.

2. 2

   Juice 3 medium limes and add to a small mixing bowl. Whisk together with 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Stir in 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Pour over the swordfish in the shallow dish or resealable bag to coat.

3. 3

   Refrigerate the swordfish for 30 to 60 minutes while you preheat an outdoor grill to high heat (about 500°F / 260°C). Oil the grates if needed.

4. 4

   Remove swordfish from marinade and let excess drip off. Place on the grill and cook for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time will vary depending on thickness.

5. 5

   Transfer the grilled fish to a plate. Sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro and serve with lime quarters for squeezing.
