Grilled Swordfish with Lemon Butter

Ingredients

Swordfish steaks

4 (about 6 oz each)

Butter

1/4 cup, melted

Lemon juice

2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed

Garlic

3 cloves, minced

Fresh parsley

2 tablespoons, chopped (for garnish)

Salt

1 teaspoon

Black pepper

1/2 teaspoon

Lemon wedges

for serving

Instructions

1. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the melted butter, lemon juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the lemon butter sauce.
3. Brush the swordfish steaks generously with the lemon butter mixture, making sure to coat both sides evenly.
4. Place the swordfish steaks on the preheated grill. Cook for about 6 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and easily flakes with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
5. Once cooked, remove the swordfish steaks from the grill and let them rest for 3-5 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
6. Before serving, sprinkle the grilled swordfish with chopped fresh parsley for color and flavor.
7. Serve hot with additional lemon wedges on the side for a fresh squeeze of citrus.
