Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic Butter Swordfish with Tomato Basil Sauce.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
While that warms up, grab a medium pot and set it over medium-low heat.
Step 3
Toss in 1/4 cup of butter along with a teaspoon of minced garlic, letting them melt together in a delightful blend.
Step 4
Once the butter is melted, stir in some cubed tomatoes, fresh chopped basil, and a splash of lime juice.
Step 5
Keep an eye on it, and just as the mixture starts to bubble, lower the heat to let it simmer gently.
Step 6
In a separate small pot, melt the remaining butter and mix in another teaspoon of minced garlic, creating a fragrant garlic butter that will elevate your dish.
Step 7
Now, take your swordfish steaks and place them in a baking pan, drizzling the garlic butter mixture generously over each piece.
Step 8
Slide the pan into your preheated oven and bake the swordfish for about 7 minutes.
Step 9
After that, carefully flip the steaks over and continue baking until they are perfectly flaky, which should take another 7 minutes or so.
Step 10
When it’s time to serve, spoon that vibrant tomato basil mixture over the fish and drizzle with the delicious pan juices for an extra burst of flavor.
Step 11
Enjoy this delightful dish that’s sure to impress your family and friends!.
