Swordfish Steaks with Caper Butter Sauce

8-10 Minutes | easy | Serves 2

Swordfish is a very meaty, large fish that can be cut into large steaks, like tuna. This makes it very easy to cook on the BBQ. Here we have topped it with a simple butter-based sauce, with plenty of capers, for pops of acidity.

Ingredients

  • 2 swordfish steaks
  • 1 tablespoons capers, rinsed
  • 50g unsalted butter
  • Small handful parsley leaves, finely chopped
  • A large squeeze of lemon juice
  • Oil, for cooking

Directions

1.

Rub the swordfish

Rub the swordfish with a little oil, and season with salt.
