Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mediterranean Swordfish with Stuffing.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your outdoor grill to a high temperature, then lightly oil the grate to ensure your swordfish steak doesn’t stick.
Step 2
Next, carefully slice a pocket into the swordfish, making sure it remains open on one side for easy stuffing.
Step 3
In a small bowl, combine one tablespoon of olive oil with fresh lemon juice, whisking until blended.
Step 4
Generously brush this mixture over both sides of the swordfish and set it aside to absorb the flavors.
Step 5
Heat one teaspoon of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat, then add minced garlic, sautéing for about 30 seconds until it releases its aromatic fragrance.
Step 6
Toss in fresh spinach and cook until it wilts, stirring occasionally.
Step 7
Once wilted, remove the skillet from heat and stuff the spinach into the pocket of the swordfish.
Step 8
Crumble feta cheese and sprinkle it over the spinach for a delightful burst of flavor.
Step 9
Now, place the stuffed swordfish on the preheated grill and cook for approximately 8 minutes.
Step 10
Gently flip the fish and continue grilling until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C), ensuring it is perfectly cooked through.
Step 11
Enjoy the delicious combination of flavors in every bite!.
