Swordfish With Olive, Pine Nut, and Parsley Relish

Submitted by Dr. Jenny

"This light and easy recipe comes from Bon Appetit. DH and I enjoyed it. I actually used pimento stuffed green olives as those were the only olives I had on hand and it worked out fine. I cooked my swordfish a few more minutes on each side than the recipe called for."

This was an interesting but good flavor. I only had about 1/4 the amount of shallots so I reduced the rest of the relish ingredients to match. I used pimento-stuffed olives as well and left out the red pepper flakes. The fish was cooked perfectly in 9 minutes. Made for Photo Tag.
