Swordfish

Swordfish is a large predatory marine fish with a characteristic long, flat bill resembling a sword. It is one of the fastest fish in the ocean and can weigh over four hundred kilograms. Its meat is firm, dense, and virtually boneless, with a mildly sweet flavor. The texture is more steak-like than typical fish, which is why it is most often prepared as a grilled or broiled steak. It is excellent on the grill, where it pairs wonderfully with citrus marinades, fresh herbs, and olive oil. Swordfish is a popular element of Mediterranean cuisine and complements capers, tomatoes, and arugula beautifully.
