This Ginger Swordfish recipe is a delightful dish that combines the flavors of ginger, soy sauce, and lime with succulent swordfish steaks. The fish is marinated in a tangy ginger marinade, then grilled to perfection. It is a healthy and nutritious dish that can be prepared in a short amount of time, making it perfect for a weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

  • 4 swordfish steaks
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, lime juice, honey, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  2. Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure all sides are coated. Allow the fish to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  4. Remove the swordfish steaks from the marinade, letting any excess drip off. Grill the steaks for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
  5. Once cooked, transfer the swordfish steaks to a serving platter or individual plates. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
  6. Serve the Ginger Swordfish with steamed rice or a side salad for a complete and satisfying meal.
