Sicilian Stuffed Swordfish Rolls Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk the oil, herbes de Provence, salt, and pepper in a large bowl to blend. Cut the swordfish steaks into 36 (1-inch) cubes and toss in the oil mixture to coat. Thread the swordfish cubes onto wooden skewers, 3 per skewer. Wrap a slice of pancetta around and between the swordfish cubes on each skewer. Arrange the swordfish skewers on a small baking sheet and brush with the remaining oil mixture. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 1 day, turning occasionally in the oil mixture.
• Prepare the barbecue for medium-high heat or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the swordfish skewers until the swordfish is just opaque in the center and the pancetta is crisp, turning often, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer the skewers to plates and serve with lemon wedges.

Steps:

• In a medium size bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients. Lay out the fish slices and spread the stuffing mixture evenly over them. Drizzle with approximately 2 tablespoons olive oil. Roll each fish slice so it resembles a cigar, and secure it with a toothpick or a skewer or tie it with string. Dredge the rolls in flour. In a frying pan large enough to hold the fish comfortably, heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil until hot and brown the rolls lightly, turning them one or twice. This should take 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully pour the marinara sauce all over the fish rolls and simmer gently, uncovered, for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the fish just flakes when tested with a fork. Turn once during the cooking in the sauce. Serve and Enjoy!

Steps:

• Light a charcoal grill or preheat a gas or stovetop grill until very hot.
• For the sauce, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper. Set aside.
• When the grill is ready, sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper and cook over medium-high heat for 2 minutes on one side, then turn and cook for 1 to 2 minutes on the other side until almost cooked through. Remove to a flat dish, prick holes in the fish with the tines of a fork, and pour the lemon sauce over the fish while it¿s still hot. Sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper, cover with aluminum foil, and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
• When ready to serve, place the swordfish on dinner plates or a serving platter, pile the arugula on top, drizzle with the sauce from the fish, and sprinkle with the grated lemon zest. Serve warm.
