Instructions
- First, brush swordfish with about a teaspoon of the olive oil and grill 3-4 minutes per side, until cooked through. Alternatively, you can pan sear each side quickly on stove top and finish in oven for about 5-8 minutes at 350 degrees, careful not to overcook.
- To make the sauce, place mint, garlic, juice from one of the lemons, coriander, cumin, and smoked paprika until finely chopped. Then, slowly add in the remaining olive oil. Pulse until it is well combined.
- Divide evenly into four portions and drizzle with sauce. Serve with lemon slices so you can add extra lemon juice to the cooked swordfish for a citrus boost.
