Ingredients

Servings
  • 1.5 pounds swordfish steaks
  • 2 large plum tomatoes halved, seeds removed, and chopped
  • 2 tablespoons capers rinsed
  • 1/4 cup parsley chopped, fresh
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/4 cup olive oil light or regular
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes crushed, hot
  • 3/4 cup chopped olives

Instructions

  1. To a large pan over medium to medium-low heat, add the extra virgin olive oil and the garlic and saute for 1-2 minutes or until the garlic is fragrant.
  2. Add the olives and saute for 1 minute more, then add the tomatoes and saute for 1 additional minute.
  3. Turn off the heat and add the parsley, capers, and optional crushed red pepper.  Place the olive and caper sauce in a bowl.
  4. Wipe down the pan and heat the regular olive oil over medium heat.
  5. Pat the swordfish steaks dry with a paper towel and season with the salt and pepper on both sides.  
  6. Place the steaks in the hot pan and cook for 3 minutes per side.
  7. Remove the steaks and place on a serving plate.  Spoon the olive and caper sauce all over the swordfish.  Serve immediately with remaining sauce on the side.

Notes

  • Olives and capers are inherently salty so be sure to keep that in mind when adding any additional salt to the recipe.
  • Tuna or salmon can be used in place of swordfish.
