These swordfish steaks are seasoned with salt, pepper, paprika, butter, then broiled.

Cook Time: 8 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 2 pounds swordfish steaks, about 1 inch thick
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/8 teaspoon sweet Hungarian paprika
  • 5 tablespoons melted butter
  • chopped fresh parsley, if desired
  • lemon wedges

Preparation:

Sprinkle swordfish steaks with salt, pepper, and paprika and gently rub into the fish. Preheat a greased broiler rack. Place swordfish steaks on the greased broiler rack and place under broiler, about 2 to 3 inches from heat source. Brush swordfish steaks with melted butter; broil for about 3 minutes. Turn swordfish steaks, brush with more melted butter, and broil for 4 to 5 minutes longer. Fish should be lightly browned and will flake easily with a fork. Sprinkle swordfish steaks lightly with chopped fresh parsley, if desired, and serve with lemon wedges.

"The last time I made swordfish it came out dry and I was so disappointed... this recipe turned out PERFECT and moist and was really easy. Making it again for sure. Oh, and I just used regular paprika the first time. Went out and bought the right kind thinking it might turn out even better next time!"
