Swordfish With Grapefruit And Rosemary Butter
- 2 6-oz swordfish steaks -- 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick
- Salt and ground pepper
- 1 tablespoon Butter
-----ROSEMARY BUTTER SAUCE-----
- 2 Shallots -- minced
- 1 teaspoon Dried rosemary -- crumbled
- 3/4 cup Fresh grapefruit juice
- 2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) unsalted butter
- Fresh parsley sprigs
Season fish with salt and pepper. Melt 1 tb butter in heavy medium
skillet over medium heat. Add fish and cook until just opaque,
about 9 minutes per inch of thickness, turning once. Transfer
fish to warm platter. Tent with foil to keep warm.
Pour off all but film of butter from skillet. Add shallots and
rosemary and stir over medium heat until shallots soften, about
2 minutes. Add grapefruit juice. Increase heat and bring to boil,
scraping up any browned bits. Add any juices from the fish platter.
Boil until sauce is syrupy, 5 to 8 minutes.
Remove from heat and swirl in 2 tb butter, 1 tb at a time. Season
sauce with salt and pepper. Spoon over fish. Garnish with parsley.
