INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons butter room temperature
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
1 clove garlic minced
1/2 teaspoon ginger grated
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon lemon peel grated
1 tablespoon olive oil
12 ounces swordfish fillets should be 6-7 ounces each
Sea salt to taste
DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400°F.
In a small bowl blend together the butter, parsley, garlic, ginger, red pepper and lemon peel.
Season the swordfish to taste with sea salt.
Place an ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat and when hot add one tablespoon of olive oil and the swordfish, salted side down.
Pan sear the swordfish for 1-2 minutes or until it has a nice color.
Turn the swordfish over, and drain out any excess oil from the pan. Carefully add a few tablespoons of water to the pan and place the pan in a preheated 400 degree oven
Roast the swordfish until just cooked through, about 6-8 minutes or until desired doneness.

Pour butter sauce over swordfish and serve with your favorite side dishes.
