For a milder salsa, remove the seeds and membranes from the jalapeños before mincing. If you like more heat, leave some seeds in. Using fresh pineapple instead of canned pineapple elevates the taste. Marinating the swordfish for longer than 30 minutes can result in a mushy texture. Be sure to only marinate for the specified time. To prevent sticking, ensure the grill grate is clean and well-oiled. A fish spatula is helpful for flipping the delicate swordfish steaks.

01 Step
Recipe View Prepare the Citrus Salsa: In a medium bowl, gently combine the orange segments, pineapple chunks (with their juice for extra sweetness), diced mango, minced jalapeños, 3 tablespoons of orange juice, diced red bell pepper, sugar, and chopped cilantro. Mix lightly to preserve the fruit's integrity. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (30 minutes)
02 Step
Recipe View Marinate the Swordfish: In a large glass or ceramic bowl, whisk together the 1/2 cup orange juice, olive oil, pineapple juice concentrate, and cayenne pepper. Add the swordfish steaks to the marinade, turning to ensure they are thoroughly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. (30 minutes)
03 Step
Recipe View Preheat and Prepare the Grill: Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (about 375-450°F or 190-230°C). Lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. (5 minutes)
04 Step
