Reviews
It was good. Swordfish can sometimes be a little strong, so if it smells fishy, I soak it in lemon for a few hrs and that removes most of the gamey taste. I added roasted garlic powder to the fillets while cooking.
Really good, solid recipe.
Wasn’t very good
I followed this recipe exactly. I did not marinate the swordfish, only brushed it with the lemon juice. The lemon pepper seasoning was overwhelming. The lemon juice and the dill were very good and I think next time I’ll use just black pepper instead. The time on the grill was good. The fish was cooked just right.
Great idea!
I would definitely make this recipe again. My very fussy husband loved it and my son was happy to try something new! Easy and delicious!!
Delicate and Delicious! Super easy too.
Very easy recipe. Will probably make again sometime.
Simple but tasty. I like that it’s basted with the juice rather than marinated. It gives it a cleaner flavor. I used the seasoning like a rub, which formed a nice crust.
I loved it
Made a variation on this: stove-top vs. grill, brushed with lemon juice and oil, salt & pepper. Made lemon-basil butter with following ingredients and applied when serving: 4 T unsalted butter softened,1 stop lemon juice, 1/2 t. Minced garlic, 1/4 t. Salt, 2 T fresh or dried basil. 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 minutes per side.
This is a great, simple recipe that you can’t screw up. I didn’t measure anything. I just soaked each side in lemon juice for a few minutes, coated with lemon pepper and a little dill and threw it in the oven. The steaks were an inch thick, so it took an extra minute or two on each side. Tasted like swordfish should.
So easy and so delicious! Paired this with the Lemon Orzo Primavera for the perfect meal
I wasn’t impressed with this recipe. It wasn’t bad, but I thought it was bland. I will not make it again.
I have been pan grilling or oven baking swordfish for many years. It is important to me not to distract from the delicious taste of the swordfish. I only put a small sprinkle of salt and dried dill weed on the fish.I serve lemon wedges on dinner plate.
This easy recipe makes for a great tasting meal. I broil the fish in a cast iron grill pan. This key to this is to find good fresh swordfish.
I added a pat of compound dill butter when it came off the grill. A side of sauteed fresh spinach, and we were a happy family!
This was great! Also reduced the spices. Served with mango salsa. A nice compliment to the fish.
Simple and exceptional. Perfect for the single diner
This recipe was very simple and very great. I used the outdoor gas barbecue and fresh swordfish. Really hit the spot! Definitely doing it again.
It’s simple and it’s delicious!
