Grilled Swordfish Kabobs w Citrus Pesto Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • Brush both sides of the swordfish fillets with olive oil and season with lemon pepper, salt and pepper.
  • The longer you let it marinade, the more flavorful the fish. I like to do it about 2 hours before I make the pesto, but you can do it right before you make the pesto and its still delicious.
  • For the pesto, blend the basil, pine nuts, garlic, zests, juices, salt, and pepper in a food processor until the mixture is finely chopped.
  • With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the Parmesan.
  • Skewer the swordfish onto kabob sticks and grill on 425 for about 3-4 mins on each side, or until thoroughly cooked. Be careful not to over cook, fish cooks fairly quickly
  • Transfer the grilled swordfish to serving plates, top with the citrus pesto, and serve.
