OMGosh! I thought I had rated these ages ago! I must've only put it in the SD Zaar thread. We really enjoyed the swordfish. It was yummy and the grill marks were beautiful! We used our own homemade salsa, which is quite spicy, so I am not sure how much of the marinade came through. Just yummy, though, and we'll make it again and again! Thanks, Greg!
