Grilled Swordfish with Tomatillo Corn Relish
Swordfish is more steaky than fishy (that dense, meaty, heartiness), so if you’re not sure what you’re craving, its a good way to go once in a while. Just like with red meat, you need strong flavors to stand up alongside it, and so for this dish, I grilled some citric marinated swordfish steaks and served them with a tomatillo corn relish.
The slowest step in preparing this dish is marinating the fish, and even that goes pretty quickly (no more than an hour!), so this is one of those dishes you could feasibly do during the middle of the week. The marinade imparts a subtle, spicy, citric flavor unto the fish, which compliments the more forward flavored relish. The relish largely resembles salsa verde and has similar citric, crisp, flavors with a balance of sweetness and crunch brought by the corn. All together, it was a really strong flavored, tasty meal.
