Jamaican Jerk Grilled Swordfish Steaks

Jamaican Jerk Grilled Swordfish Steaks

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon Jamaican jerk seasoning (such as Spice Islands)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 4 (6-ounce) swordfish steaks (about 3/4 inch thick)
  • Cooking spray

Instructions

Marinate the Swordfish:

In a large bowl, combine the plain yogurt, Jamaican jerk seasoning, lemon juice, garlic powder, ground cumin, chili powder, ground cinnamon, and ground ginger.

Add the swordfish steaks to the bowl, turning them to coat evenly with the marinade.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1 hour, turning the fish occasionally to ensure even marination.

Prepare the Grill:

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

Lightly coat the grill rack with cooking spray.

Grill the Swordfish:

Place the marinated swordfish steaks on the prepared grill rack.

Grill the fish for about 4 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork and reaches your desired level of doneness.

Serve:

Remove the swordfish from the grill and serve immediately.
