Achiote Swordfish

Method

Grilling the Swordfish

  1. 1

    Marinate the Swordfish

    In a bowl, mix the achiote paste, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Coat the swordfish steaks with this marinade and let them sit for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Grill the Swordfish

    Place the marinated swordfish on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
