Ingredients:
4 6-ounce fresh swordfish steaks |
1/2 cup(s) butter, slightly softened |
2 tablespoon(s) fresh-squeezed lemon juice |
2 teaspoon(s) finely grated lemon peel |
1/8 teaspoon(s) cracked black peppercorns, or to taste |
1 1/2 cup(s) chopped fresh herbs, thyme and oregano |
1/3 cup(s) olive oil |
1/2 teaspoon(s) salt |
Directions:
1. Combine butter, lemon juice, lemon peel and cracked peppercorns in a small mixing bowl; set aside.
2. Mix the herbs and oil together in a small bowl; press on as much as will stick to the fish. Cover and refrigerate steaks in their herb crusts for at least 1/2 hour and as long as 3 hours.
3. Preheat a grill or broiler and broiler pan. Right before cooking, oil the grill or broiler pan. Season fish with salt, then lay swordfish steaks on grill or broiler pan. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes each side or until firm and opaque; remove to warm plates.
4. Top each steak with 1 tablespoon of the lemon butter; serve the remaining lemon butter to add as desired.
