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:
For the salsa, combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and set aside while you prepare the fish.
For the marinade, mix all ingredients. Place swordfish and marinade in a ziplock bag or shallow dish and let sit for 15-20 minutes.
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.
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.
Serve with tortillas, rice and beans or a simple green salad.
