Grilled Swordfish with Herb Butter

Grilled Swordfish with Herb Butter is an easy and delicious recipe that is perfect for a summer BBQ or a fancy dinner party. The swordfish is marinated in a simple mixture of olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and herbs, then grilled to perfection and topped with a creamy herb butter.

Ingredients:

• 4 swordfish steaks (6 oz each)
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh basil
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh chives
• 1 tbsp chopped fresh tarragon

Instructions:

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, parsley, basil, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture into a large resealable plastic bag.
2. Add the swordfish steaks to the bag and seal. Toss to coat the fish in the marinade. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 1 hour.
3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
4. Remove the swordfish steaks from the marinade and discard the marinade.
5. Grill the swordfish for 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through and lightly charred.
6. In a small bowl, stir together the butter, chives, and tarragon until well combined.
7. Top each swordfish steak with a spoonful of herb butter and serve immediately.
