Grilled Chili-Lime Swordfish with Mango-Tequila Salsa  

Ingredients:

  • 4 pieces of Swordfish

Marinade

  • ¼ cup canola oil

  • 1 tsp chili flakes

  • 1 tsp crushed coriander seed

  • ½ tsp garlic, minced

  • Zest and juice of 1 lime

  • 1 tsp fresh mint, chopped

  • 1tsp salt

Mango-Tequila Salsa

  • 2 cups mango (fresh or frozen), diced 

  • ½ cup red onion, finely diced

  • 1 red bell pepper, seeded and finely diced

  • 1 jalapeno, seeded and finely diced

  • 3 tbsp tequila

  • Juice of 1 lime

  • 1 tbsp cilantro, chopped 

  • 1 tsp fresh mint, chopped

  • 1 tsp salt 


How To Make It:

  1. For the salsa, combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and set aside while you prepare the fish.

  2. For the marinade, mix all ingredients. Place swordfish and marinade in a ziplock bag or shallow dish and let sit for 15-20 minutes.

  3. Heat grill. While grill is heating remove swordfish from marinade and dab with a paper towel to remove excess oil. Grill fish for around 5 minutes per side.

  4. Alternately, to cook in a grill pan, preheat pan over medium-high heat and grill swordfish for 3-4 minutes per side, transfer to parchment lined baking sheet and cook in oven for about 8-10 minutes or until it flakes easily when pierced with a fork.

  5. Serve with tortillas, rice and beans or a simple green salad.
