Swordfish Spiedini
- 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 teaspoons herbes de Provence
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 pounds swordfish steaks (at least 1-inch thick), trimmed
- 12 short, thick wooden skewers, soaked in water for at least 30 minutes
- 12 thin slices pancetta (about 3 ounces), unrolled so that you have a strip
- 6 lemon wedges
- Whisk the oil, herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper in a large bowl to blend.
- Cut the swordfish steaks into 36 (1-inch) cubes and toss in the oil mixture to coat.
- Thread the swordfish cubes onto wooden skewers, 3 per skewer.
- Wrap a slice of pancetta around and between the swordfish cubes on each skewer.
- Arrange the swordfish skewers on a small baking sheet and brush with the remaining oil mixture.
- Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 1 day, turning occasionally in the oil mixture.
- Prepare the barbecue for medium-high heat or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- Grill the swordfish skewers until the swordfish is just opaque in the center and the pancetta is crisp, turning often, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the skewers to plates and serve with lemon wedges.
