Ingredients
  

  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp minced fresh rosemary
  • 1 tsp grated lemon zest
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 2 swordfish steaks 5 oz each

Instructions
 

  • With a large plastic bag, combine the lemon juice, olive oil, minced garlic, minced rosemary, lemon zest, salt, and pepper. Make sure it gets mixed well – if it’s easier, mix in a bowl first and then pour into the plastic bag.
    Tip: To keep from getting messy, roll outward the edges of the top of the Ziploc bag to help it stay open while putting things in there!
  • Add the swordfish to the bag, turning it over in the marinade a few times to evenly coat. Seal it tightly and then use your hands to make sure the marinade is still distributed well. Refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Lightly oil the grate of your grill (be sure not to burn yourself!). Remove the swordfish from the bag and dispose of the remaining marinade.
  • Place the swordfish on the grill, cover it, and cook on medium-high heat or 4 inches from the broiler for 4-6 minutes per side.
  • The swordfish is done once it becomes opaque and reaches at least 145 degrees.
  • Remove carefully from the grill and serve with your favorite sides!
