Swordfish has a texture that makes so easy to grill that many people overlook other ways to cook it. I tried this recipe out and fell in love.

2 ½ pounds of fresh swordfish
All-purpose flour
Salt & freshly ground black pepper
½ cup marinara sauce
4 tablespoons of butter
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
4 shallots, sliced fine

Heat oven to 300°. Cut the fish into ½ inch thick slices if they aren’t already (try getting the butcher to do this when you buy it), dry well, and sprinkle lightly with flour, salt and pepper. Mix the marinara sauce with four tablespoons of the butter. Place the oil in a baking pan and add the fish. Cook for five minutes on each side on top of the stove over medium heat. Remove from the heat. Add the marinara sauce/butter mixture and sliced shallots. Cover and bake in the oven for 20 minutes. Enjoy.  Yankees suck!
