INGREDIENTS

  • 1 orange, peeled, sectioned, and cut into bite-size
  • 1/2 cup canned pineapple chunks, undrained
  • 1/4 cup diced fresh mango
  • 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and minced
  • 3 tablespoons orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon diced red bell pepper
  • 2 teaspoons white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
  •  
  • 1/2 cup fresh orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1 tablespoon pineapple juice concentrate, thawed
  • 1 1/2 pounds swordfish steaks

DIRECTIONS

  1. Make the salsa: In a medium-size bowl, combine oranges, pineapple chunks, mango, minced jalapenos, 3 tablespoons orange juice, diced red bell pepper, sugar, and cilantro. Mix well, and refrigerate covered.
  2. In a non-reactive bowl, mix 1/2 cup orange juice, olive oil, cayenne pepper, and pineapple juice concentrate. Place swordfish steaks in bowl, and turn to coat well. Marinate the swordfish in the mixture for 30 minutes.
  3. Prepare an outside grill with oiled rack set 6 inches from the heat source. On a gas grill, set the heat to medium-high.
  4. Grill the swordfish on each side for a total time of about 12 to 15 minutes, until opaque in the center. Serve the grilled fish with the salsa.

Easy to prepare with delicious results. I didn't have any mango and used fresh pineapple as suggested by another viewer. As the fish marinates, prepare the salsa the meal is ready in about 45 minutes.

These were outstanding...the fruit salsa was the best part! The swordfish had a slightly fishy taste (which my husband really enjoyed...me not so much) so next time I will use another fish...probably orange roughy. I did not have any fresh red peppers so I subbed some roasted red pepper in a jar. I also used pineapple juice for the pineapple juice concentrate. I am going to use the leftover salsa on some soft chicken tacos...will let you know how it was. Edited to add...OMG! For lunch today I made soft chicken tacos w/ the salsa & it was fanflippingtastic! No exaggeration. I used warm flour tortillas, boiled chicken (from this site) that I sauteed in olive oil & mesquite seasonings for a couple of minutes to add flavor (I bet canned chicken would work as well), shredded swiss cheese, diced sweet onions, shredded lettuce & lots of citrus salsa. It was so good that hubby wanted to know if there was enough left to have for dinner tonight. :o)

The recipe was extremely tasty and made a wonderful summer meal (I made it back in June, but just getting around to reviewing it). My BIG MISTAKE was not having ever handled jalepenos before I was not aware that one should wear gloves when touching the seeds and membranes of a jalepeno. I paid for it all night with hands that felt like they were on fire! When I did a google search I found that this is a well-documented fact, which made me feel really stupid but I don't come from a culture that uses hot peppers so I had no idea. Anyway, a word of warning to others who do not know this. Wear gloves, you will regret it otherwise.
