What temperature do you grill swordfish?

Put the swordfish in the bowl to cover and let marinate in the fridge for 15 minutes. Preheat a grill to high heat (450-500 degrees). Grill the fish for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Actual grilling time will depend on the thickness of your fillet.

How should Swordfish be cooked?

When grilling (or broiling), cook swordfish like you would a rare steak: Use high heat to sear the outside, and let it stay a little rare in the middle, about 5 minutes on one side, then 2 to 3 minutes on the other for an inch-thick steak.

How do I know when swordfish is done?

Once the grill is hot, lay each swordfish steak on the grate and cook them for 6 minutes, flipping them over halfway through. To test if they're finished, use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature of the steaks. If they're 145 degrees Fahrenheit and flaky on the inside, they're finished.

Should Swordfish be pink in the middle?

Unlike tuna, it should be just – but only just – cooked right through, bearing in mind that it will continue cooking in its own heat after it is removed from the pan. Swordfish a la rose, the trendy term for fish cooked rare to medium-rare, is not recommended.
