Instructions
- Marinate swordfish steaks in the lemon and orange juice for about 10 minutes.
- Heat oil in a sauté pan over medium-high heat until oil begins to shimmer.
- Remove steaks from marinade, and salt both sides of the steaks. Next, rub the lemon and orange zest onto both sides of the steaks. (If any zest falls off, just sprinkle it onto the steaks while they cook.)
- Set swordfish onto the sauté pan, set a timer for 3 minutes, and don't touch the fish until the 3 minutes have passed.
- Using a thin metal spatula, flip the steaks and sear them for about 3 more minutes. The steaks should be cooked through, but still juicy.
- Finish the fish by squeezing a little fresh orange or lemon juice over the fish, and topping with fresh diced green onion.
