Grilled Swordfish with Lemon-Basil Butter
"Grilling fish can be a bit tricky, but swordfish, with its firm, steak-like texture stands up well to this method of cooking. A little lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper is all that's needed to prepare the fish for the grill, and a simple compound butter flavored with lemon zest and basil makes the perfect complement. Serve with sautéed spinach and a salad for a light, warm-weather meal...."
