Best Swordfish With Achiote And Orange Recipes

ORANGE GLAZED SWORDFISH

Steps:

• In a non-reactive shallow dish, combine the swordfish with the orange juice, ginger, sesame oil, and soy sauce and marinate for 30 minutes.
• Prepare an outside grill with an oiled rack set 6 inches above the heat source.
• Drain and reserve the marinade. Grill the swordfish for 6 to 7 minutes per side until the swordfish is opaque in the center.
• In a small bowl, mix together the cornstarch with the water. Place the reserved marinade in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the cornstarch sauce to the marinade and cook 1 minute until thickened. Serve the orange sauce with the swordfish.

BAKED SWORDFISH WITH TAPENADE AND ORANGE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Place swordfish steaks in large shallow baking dish and season with salt and pepper. Spread tapenade on top of steaks. Pour orange juice and wine over and around the fish and cover with foil. Bake until fish is just cooked through, and still opaque, about 8 to 10 minutes.
• Remove the baking pan from oven and transfer fish to platter. Pour remaining liquid into a small saucepan and reduce slightly. Whisk in butter and spoon sauce over fish. Garnish with orange slices and minced parsley.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Cut the tomatoes in half, crosswise. With your index finger poke out the seeds from the cavities. Sprinkle the halves lightly with salt and put the tomato upside down on a rack to drain for 20 minutes or more. Blend all of the remaining ingredients in a mixing bowl. Correct the seasoning. Sprinkle the insides of each tomato half with black pepper, then fill with 1 or 2 spoonfuls of the stuffing. Sprinkle with a few drops of olive oil. Arrange the tomatoes in the oiled baking dish. They can be prepared up to this point several hours ahead. Place the baking dish in the upper third of the preheated oven and bake the tomatoes until tender but still holding their shape, 10 to 15 minutes. The bread crumb filling should be lightly browned.

SWORDFISH WITH ACHIOTE AND ORANGE

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients except for the fish, oil, tortillas, and garnish in a large bowl. Toss the fish cubes in the mixture and marinate for at least 3 hours.
• Remove the fish from the marinade, shaking off any excess liquid; discard the marinade. In a large, heavy skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat and sauté the fish on all sides until cooked through, about 7 minutes.
• To serve, lay the tortillas side by side, open face and overlapping on a platter. Divide the shredded lettuce and filling equally between the tortillas and top with salsa and a squeeze of fresh lime. Grab, fold, and eat right away. Or build your own taco: lay a tortilla, open face, in one hand. Add some shredded lettuce, spoon on some filling, and top with salsa and a squeeze of fresh lime. Fold, and eat right away.

SWORDFISH WITH BLOOD-ORANGE STUFFING

Steps:

• In a small skillet over medium heat, combine 1 tablespoon olive oil and the onions, and sauté until tender. Scrape the onions into a large bowl, and add the bread crumbs, pine nuts, raisins and cheese. Finely grate the zest from the oranges and add to the bread crumbs. Squeeze in the juice of 1 orange (reserve remaining oranges for other use). Mix until it just starts to bind together. Season with salt and pepper.
• Form a portion of the stuffing into a log about the width and length of a thumb, and then roll into a piece of swordfish. Repeat to make 12 rolls.
• To serve, heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add just enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Season the swordfish rolls with a touch of salt and pepper, then add to the pan in batches, turning once or twice so all sides of the rolls are lightly browned. If desired, serve with mâche salad dressed with a vinaigrette of shallots, zinfandel vinegar and blood-orange-infused olive oil.
