Fast Fresh Fish-Mediterranian-Style Swordfish

Ingredients:
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 1/2 tsp olive oil
  • 3/4 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp ground black pepper
  • 4 (6-oz.) Swordfish steaks, about 3/4 inch thick
  • 2 tbsp chopped pitted kalamata olives (optional)

Serves 4

  1. Combine the parsley, lemon juice , mustard, oil, basil, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp of the pepper in a small bowl; set aside.
  2. Spinkle the swordfish with the remaining 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper. Spray a nonstick ridged grill pan with nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. Place the swordfish on the grill pan and cook until browned, about 4 minutes in each side. Brush with half the parsley mixture; turn and grill about 1 minute. Brush with the remaining parsley mixture; turn and grill until the fish is just opaque throughout, about 1 minute longer. Serve sprinkled with the olives.

Note: This recipe appears in the WW in 20 Minutes Cookbook. It's one of my favorites but I usually use cod because cod is my mom's favorite fish. I really like swordfish because it's so meaty but it has a strong fishy scent to it. You can use any fish with this recipe.
