Step 1: Prepare the Marinade

In a mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, salt, and pepper.

Whisk together until well blended.

Step 2: Marinate the Swordfish

Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.

Pour the marinade over the swordfish, ensuring each steak is coated evenly.

Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator) for better flavor.

Step 3: Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Make sure it's hot before adding the fish.

If using a grill pan, you can lightly grease it with cooking spray or a little olive oil to prevent sticking.

Step 4: Grill the Swordfish

Remove the swordfish from the marinade, allowing excess to drip off.

Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side. The fish should easily flake with a fork when it’s done.

For added flavor, you can squeeze some fresh lemon juice over the fish while it cooks.

Step 5: Serve

Once cooked, remove the swordfish from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Garnish with fresh parsley and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

Variations

Herbed Version: Add fresh basil or thyme to the marinade for an aromatic twist.

Spicy Option: Incorporate red pepper flakes for a little heat.

Zesty Marinade: Add orange juice and zest for a citrusy flavor.
