  • 1 head of garlic, roasted and cloves minced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened

    • For the Mango Salsa:

  • 2 cups diced mango
  • 1/2 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

    • For the Avocado Cream:

  • 2 ripe avocados, peeled and pitted
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Swordfish Steaks: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Pat the swordfish steaks dry with paper towels. Brush with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Roast the Garlic and Herbs: Wrap the head of garlic in foil and roast in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until the cloves are soft and caramelized. Once roasted, let cool slightly and then mince the cloves.
  3. Make the Herb Butter: In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, minced roasted garlic, chopped rosemary, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  4. Cook the Swordfish Steaks: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the swordfish steaks and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from heat and top each steak with a generous dollop of herb butter.
  5. Make the Mango Salsa: In a medium bowl, combine the diced mango, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well and set aside.
  6. Make the Avocado Cream: In a food processor or blender, combine the avocados, sour cream, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  7. Assemble and Serve: Place each swordfish steak on a serving plate. Top with mango salsa and avocado cream. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
