Spicy Crusted Swordfish With Citrus Walnut Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Blend the basil, pine nuts, garlic, zests, juices, salt, and pepper in a food processor until the mixture is finely chopped. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the Parmesan.
• Place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Brush both sides of the swordfish fillets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the swordfish about 3 to 4 minutes on each side for a 1-inch thick fillet.
• Transfer the grilled swordfish to serving plates, top with the citrus pesto, and serve.

Steps:

• Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Stir in 1 teaspoon oil. Rub spice mixture over both sides of swordfish. Cover and chill 30 minutes.
• Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan; gradually stir in couscous. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork. Stir in lemon rind, lemon juice, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and mint. Set aside, and keep warm.

Steps:

• Crush the habanero and kosher salt into a fine paste with a mortar and pestle before whisking in mayonnaise, horseradish, lemon juice, vinegar, white pepper, and garlic powder.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the pasta and cook until tender but still firm to the bite, stirring occasionally, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain the pasta, reserving 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid.
• Make the pesto: Blend the basil, pine nuts, garlic, lemon zest and juice, orange zest and juice, salt, and pepper in a food processor until finely chopped. With the machine running, gradually add the olive oil until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the Parmesan. Toss with the warm spaghetti and the reserved pasta water.
• Meanwhile, place a grill pan over medium-high heat or preheat a gas or charcoal grill. Brush both sides of the swordfish steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Grill the swordfish for 3 to 4 minutes on each side for a 1-inch-thick steak.
• Transfer the pasta to a serving platter, top with the grilled swordfish, and serve.
