1. 1

   Prepare the Swordfish

   Pat the swordfish steaks dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.

   Dredge in Flour

   Spread the flour on a plate and dredge each swordfish steak in the flour, shaking off any excess.

3. 3

   Brown the Butter

   Cook the Swordfish

   Cook the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

5. 5

   Make the Piccata Sauce

   In the same skillet, add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the lemon juice and capers, stirring well.
