Fresh Swordfish Steaks
Fresh Swordfish is known for its mild flavor and firm, meaty texture. Its substantial texture makes it an excellent choice for grilling, pan-searing, broiling, or baking and allows it to hold up well to marinades and flavorful seasonings.
What Does Swordfish Taste Like?
Swordfish has a mild, slightly sweet flavor with a firm, steak-like texture. It’s less delicate than many flaky white fish, making it a great choice for seafood lovers who prefer a heartier piece of fish.
Swordfish pairs beautifully with lemon, garlic, olive oil, fresh herbs, citrus, vegetables, and a variety of marinades and sauces.
How to Cook Swordfish Steaks
Swordfish can be grilled, pan-seared, broiled, or baked.
Its firm texture makes it especially well suited for the grill. Brush the steaks lightly with oil, add your favorite seasonings or marinade, and cook until the fish reaches your preferred doneness.
Swordfish can also be cut into chunks for seafood skewers with vegetables.
How Much Swordfish Should I Order?
For Swordfish served as the main course, approximately 6–8 ounces per person is a good starting point.
The amount you'll need may vary depending on appetite, preparation method, and whether the fish is being served as part of a larger meal.
