How to Cook Swordfish Steaks

If frozen, allow the swordfish steaks to thaw completely.
Season both sides of the fish very well. Many seasonings will work great, but some of my favorites are paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, black pepper, and of course salt.
Heat 2 Tbsp of oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet on medium high heat.
Once oil is heated, add the swordfish steak to the skillet. It should sizzle right when it hits the pan. Leave the fish alone and allow it to cook undisturbed 4-5 minutes, depending on the size of the fillet. Adjust the stove temperature as needed.
Turn the fish once and continue to cook on the other side 2-4 minutes as needed. If the swordfish steaks are especially thick, sear the sides of the fish as well.
Serve right away, and top with a tsp. of hot butter if desired.
