Ingredients:

Serving

2 tbsp chopped basil
2 tsp drained capers, chopped
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
four 8-oz swordfish steaks, cut 1 inch thick
1 tbsp plus 1 tsp fresh lemon juice
salt and freshly ground pepper
6 tbsp unsalted butter, softened

Directions:

Light a grill. In a small bowl, blend the butter with the basil, capers and 1 teaspoon of the lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper, and refrigerate.
In a large, shallow dish, mix the olive oil with the remaining 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Season the swordfish with salt and pepper and turn the fish in the olive oil mixture. Refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Grill the swordfish steaks over a hot fire until nicely charred on the outside and just cooked within, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to plates, top each with a dollop of basil-caper butter.
MAKE AHEAD
The basil-caper butter can be refrigerated for up to 2 days.
Internal temp for Swordfish is 125 degrees.
