Seared Swordfish with a Lemon and Wine Rosemary Sauce
- 1- 1/2 pound Swordfish Steak, Rinsed And Patted Dry
- 1 pinch Salt To Taste
- 1 pinch Cracked Black Pepper, To Taste
- 1 Tablespoon Fresh Rosemary, Finely Chopped
- 1 teaspoon Fresh Thyme, Chopped
- 1 Tablespoon Olive Oil
- 1 Tablespoon Unsalted Butter
- 1/4 cups White Wine, Such As Pinot Grigio
- 1/2 whole Lemon, Juiced
- 1 clove Garlic, Minced
- For Garnish: Lemon Wedges And/or Fresh Chopped Rosemary, Thyme Or Chives
- Start by seasoning your swordfish with salt, pepper, rosemary and thyme.
- Push the seasonings gently into the fish.
- Heat your large skillet on medium-high to high heat.
- Add in the oil and get it nice and hot, until it shimmers.
- Carefully add in the swordfish and sear for about 7 minutes or so on the first side.
- Your internal temperature of the thickest part of the fish should be around 135-140 F when done.
- Then carefully flip it over.
- At about 4 minutes into cooking the swordfish on the other side, add the butter into the skillet.
- It will immediately begin to sizzle, so add in the white wine as well.
- Then add the lemon juice and garlic.
- Let the sauce reduce with the fish for a few minutes, making sure you get to that 135-140 F internal temperature for the fish.
- Once you achieved that temperature, it is time to plate.
- Plate the fish, then pour the sauce around the perimeter of the fish.
- Garnish with a lemon, and sprinkle the top with a bit more fresh rosemary, thyme or cut up chives.
- The result is a truly great piece of fish that had this dark brown wine sauce that went perfect with the lemon, rosemary and thyme.
- If you are looking for a new fish recipe, give this one a shot.
