Directions
Remove seeds and ribs from pepper and cut into ¼ inch cubes.
Put in a bowl and mix well with the juice of the two lemons, the olive oil, salt, pepper and the oregano.
Heat broiler and pour wine to a depth of about ⅛ inch in a broiler pan.
Lay swordfish steaks in wine and broil for 3 minutes.
Pour the seasoned lemon, oil and oregano mixture over the fish and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more (until fish is cooked through and lightly browned.) Immediately transfer fish to a warmed serving dish.
You may need to reduce the sauce slightly by boiling vigorously and stirring for 2 minutes more.
Pour sauce over fish and serve.
NOTES: * Swordfish steaks cooked with sweet red peppers -- This recipe was handed out to people buying swordfish at my local fishmonger; I tried it and it was delicious.
It is also very quick and simple to make.
