10 MINUTES RECIPE



Swordfish with honey and cherry tomatoes is a second course that will win you over. It is a peculiar recipe characterized by an unusual and delicious combination: honey, with a sweet and fruity scent that goes perfectly with the acidity of the tomato and the delicate meat of the swordfish.

The slices of swordfish, just seared in a pan, are cooked in the oven with a little oil and then served covered with a diced of flavored tomatoes. A tasty dish, therefore, but healthy and light.

Swordfish steaks, lean and firm, lend themselves particularly well to simple cooking which enhances their characteristics. The swordfish alla pizzaiola and the swordfish skewers with bacon are also very simple, light and tasty. To enjoy raw swordfish, you may check the swordfish tartare with toasted pistachios.
