Notes & Tips
Swordfish is one of those fish that was made for the grill — thick, meaty steaks that hold together over the grates and pick up a little smoke without falling apart. The rosemary-lemon marinade is light enough to let the fish shine. Don't skip the full hour of marinating — it makes a difference. Sub in tuna steaks or halibut for a slightly different texture but the same great result.
