Swordfish With Chinese Plum Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Place the plums, sugar, apple cider vinegar, unseasoned rice vinegar, soy sauce, Chinese five-spice powder, ginger coins, chile and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small pot. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and simmer until the plums are soft, about 20 minutes.
• Allow the mixture to cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a blender, filling halfway. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth. Alternatively, use an immersion blender until smooth.
• Transfer the blended plum mixture back to the same pot and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the mixture is thick and you can see the bottom of the pot when you run a rubber spatula across the bottom, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer to a medium bowl or plate to cool to room temperature, about 2 hours.
• The sauce can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks or in the freezer for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• Whisk together soy sauce, vegetable oil, sherry, ginger root, and garlic in a medium bowl. Fill a large resealable bag with the mixture. Place swordfish steaks into the bag and shake to coat. Place bag in the refrigerator, and allow the steaks to marinate, at least 4 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil grate.
• Grill swordfish steaks until the they flake easily and are opaque in the center, 8 to 10 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients, except swordfish, in a bowl and mix together well. Set aside.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high, using mesquite wood. Place swordfish on grill and quickly sear. Dredge swordfish in the white wine mixture and then return to the grill. Cook until desired doneness; fish should be opaque and a knife should slide in easily.
• Remove fish from the heat and serve with fresh vegetables and a starch of choice.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together mustard and hot water. Whisk in plum and soy sauce, sesame oil, and vinegar until mixture is smooth.

• Top fish with plum sauce before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat grill.
• Combine plum sauce, hoisin sauce, chili paste, orange zest, orange juice, 2 tablespoons of the chopped coriander, 1 teaspoon of the minced ginger and the sesame oil. Brush some of this mixture lightly on the swordfish steaks, and set aside.
• Heat the chicken stock with the remaining ginger in a heavy saucepan. Add the greens, cover and steam just until they wilt, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, and stir in the scallions and remaining chopped coriander. Set aside.
• Brush the grill with peanut oil. Grill the swordfish steaks 2 to 3 minutes on each side, brushing with additional sauce mixture.
• Remove the greens from the saucepan, drain them well and place in the center of 4 shallow bowls. Place a swordfish steak on top of each. Add the remaining sauce mixture to the liquid in the saucepan, and quickly bring to a simmer. Drizzle it around the greens and swordfish. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, garnish with coriander sprigs and serve.

Steps:

• Place swordfish in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Place bell pepper slices around the fish. Pour wine over top and sprinkle with shallots. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
