Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/4 lb plum tomatoes (about 6), halved crosswise
1 tbsp cooking oil
1 cucumber, peeled , halved lengthwise, seeded, and cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 1/2 tsp lemon juice or wine vinegar
1 tbsp chopped fresh dill
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp fresh-ground black pepper
4 swordfish steaks, about 1 inch thick (about 2 lb in all )

Directions:

Light the grill or heat the broiler. Coat the tomato halves with 1 teaspoon of the oil. Grill the tomatoes cut-side up (or broil them cut-side down), until the skins start to blacken, about 10 minutes. Slip off the skins and put the tomatoes in a medium glass or stainless-steel bowl. Add the cucumber, lemon juice, dill, 3/4 teaspoon of the salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Stir to break up the tomatoes and to combine the ingredients.
Coat the swordfish with the remaining 2 teaspoons oil and sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Grill or broil the fish for 4 minutes. Turn and cook until golden brown and just done, 4 to 5 minutes longer. Serve with the salsa.
Fish Alternatives: Halibut, marlin, and salmon steaks are also delicious grilled, and any of these would go well with the salsa.
Variations: Use 1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil in place of the dill. A tablespoon of fresh mint is another tasty alternative.
Wine Recommendation: A light white wine with plenty of refreshing acidity is perfect with both the fish and the fresh vegetables. Try a Muscadet de Sèvre-et-Maine from the Loire Valley in France.
