Swordfish Spiedini

5 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tsp. herbes de Provence
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • 1 1/2 lb. skinless swordfish steak
  • 6 slices of pancetta or bacon

Directions

  1. 1
    Light a grill.
  2. 2
    In a medium bowl, mix the oil with the herbes de Provence and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
  3. 3
    Add the swordfish cubes and toss to coat.
  4. 4
    Thread one sixth of the swordfish cubes and 1 slice of pancetta onto each of 6 skewers (or soaked rosemary sprigs), wrapping the pancetta around the fish as you go.
  5. 5
    Grill the spiedini over high heat, turning occasionally, until the swordfish is cooked through and lightly charred, 8 to 9 minutes.
  6. 6
    Transfer to plates and serve.
  7. 7
    Wine Recommendation: The medium-bodied white wines of Sicily, typically made from a blend of native grapes like Inzolia and Catarratto, match well with swordfish.
  8. 8
    Try the peachy 2005 Regaleali Bianco or the melony 2005 Ajello Majus.
