Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Swordfish Tacos with Mango Tomatillo Salsa.
Step 1
Start by preheating your grill to a medium heat, and don’t forget to lightly oil the grate to keep your delicious creations from sticking.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, toss together the diced mangoes, but set aside a quarter of those vibrant mango pieces for later.
Step 3
Grab your blender and combine the remaining mango with the juice of two limes and a splash of orange juice.
Step 4
Blend this fruity mixture until it’s smooth and silky.
Step 5
Now, return to your mixing bowl and add in the diced tomatillos, chopped red onion, diced jalapeño, and fresh cilantro.
Step 6
Season this colorful salsa with a pinch of salt and a few cracks of black pepper to taste, making sure all those flavors come together beautifully.
Step 7
Pour the pureed mango mixture over your salsa ingredients and gently mix everything until it’s well combined, creating a refreshing burst of flavor.
Step 8
Next, take your swordfish fillets and lay them out on a plate.
Step 9
Drizzle them with the remaining lime juice and a touch of olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and black pepper, ensuring each fillet is evenly coated for maximum flavor.
Step 10
Now it’s time to grill! Place the swordfish on the hot grill and let it cook for about four minutes on each side.
Step 11
You’ll know it’s ready when the fish flakes easily with a fork, revealing its tender, juicy interior.
Step 12
Once cooked to perfection, remove the swordfish from the grill and generously spoon the vibrant tomatillo-mango salsa over the top.
Step 13
Serve it up and enjoy a delightful meal that’s bursting with fresh flavors and a touch of sunshine!.
