Ingredients

• 4 pieces (6-8 oz each) Swordfish steaks
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons Honey
• 1 teaspoon (grated) Fresh ginger
• 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water
• 2 stalks (sliced for garnish) Green onions
• 1 tablespoon (for garnish) Sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons Cooking oil

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, grated ginger, minced garlic, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and brown sugar to create the teriyaki marinade.

Step 2

Reserve 1/4 cup of the marinade for later use as the glaze.

Step 3

Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag. Pour the remaining marinade over the fish, ensuring each piece is well coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to 1 hour.

Step 4

While the fish is marinating, prepare the glaze. In a small saucepan, combine the reserved marinade, cornstarch, and water. Stir until the cornstarch dissolves completely.

Step 5

Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the glaze thickens (about 2-3 minutes). Once thickened, remove from heat and set aside.

Step 6

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the cooking oil and allow it to heat until shimmering.

Step 7

Remove the swordfish steaks from the marinade and shake off any excess liquid. Discard the used marinade.

Step 8

Place the swordfish steaks in the skillet or grill pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 9

During the last minute of cooking, brush the thickened teriyaki glaze onto each steak for a glossy, flavorful finish.

Step 10

Remove the steaks from the skillet and transfer them to a serving plate.

Step 11

Garnish with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.

Step 12

Serve immediately with steamed rice or your favorite side dishes for a complete meal.
