I am so delighted by the choice of fish I have in Italy!
Me and my husband love fish and when we were living abroad
we always missed fish shops abundant of freshly caught fishes.
Although also here in Italy the majority of fish is farm raised,
you can still find wild fishes, like swordfish, tunafish, anchovies,
clams, cuttlefish, squids, etc.
The other day I bought nice slices of swordfish and I prepared it
Sicilian way, with fresh tomatoes, capers and origanum.
Here is the recipe.
PESCE SPADA ALLA SICILIANA
Ingredients for 3 people:
3 slices of fresh swordfish
2 cups of small tomatoes (cherry or Roma)
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 TBS capers, drained
1 tsp of dried origanum
1 TBS of fresh origanum leaves
2 TBS extra virgin olive oil
salt and pepper
Rinse swordfish and dry it.
Sprinkle it with salt and pepper on both sides and put it aside.
In a frying pan cook onions in olive oil until soft.
Meanwhile slice tomatoes in halves and add them into the frying pan.
Add caper, dry origanum and salt and cook for 5 minutes or until tomatoes are
tender. Once done, add fresh origanum leaves and set it aside.
Warm up a grill and cook swordfish slices until they are brown on
both sides.
Spread tomatoes mix on top and serve them warm.
