  • 3/4 cup roasted red peppers, chopped

  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced

  • 4 garlic cloves, minced

  • 2 tablespoons capers, chopped

  • 1/4 cup fresh dill, chopped

  • Juice of 1 lemon

  • 1/4 cup olive oil

  • Salt and pepper, to taste

For the Swordfish:

  • 2 swordfish steaks

  • Olive oil, for brushing

  • Salt, pepper, and garlic seasoning, to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the roasted red peppers, shallot, capers, garlic, dill, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, and olive oil until combined.

  2. Season the salsa with salt and pepper to taste and refrigerate while preparing the swordfish.

  3. Brush the swordfish steaks lightly with olive oil on both sides.

  4. Season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic seasoning.

  5. Preheat the grill to medium heat and spray the grates with cooking oil.

  6. Grill the swordfish steaks for 3–4 minutes per side until a nice crust forms and the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  7. Plate the grilled swordfish and top generously with the chilled Mediterranean salsa.

  8. Serve immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over the top.

Notes

  • Substitute swordfish with tuna steaks or mahi-mahi if desired.

  • Add chopped olives to the salsa for extra briny flavor.

  • Best enjoyed fresh off the grill for optimal juiciness.
