Swordfish en Escabeche with Giardiniera and Garlic Croutons

Recipe Summary

Ingredients

4-6 medium sized skin-on swordfish fillets 1 cup of Lucini® Premium Select Extra Virgin Olive Oil® 1/2 cup Lucini® Pinot Grigio Vinegar 6 shallots, finely sliced 1 carrot, julienned 1 tsp. coriander seeds 1 bay leaf 1/2 tsp. black peppercorns Giardiniera Garlic Croutons

Instructions

Season the swordfish and place on a parchment lined baking sheet with olive oil. Bake in a 400 degree oven until just cooked through, about 10 - 15 minutes depending on the size of the fillets. Set aside. Meanwhile saute the sliced shallots in a couple tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil and add the julienned carrots. When soft, add in vinegar and herbs and spices. Simmer for 2 minutes, take off from heat and cool. Place cooked swordfish fillets in a dish with tall sides, pour the vinegar mixture over the fish and add the rest of the olive oil so that the fish is totally submerged. Refrigerate overnight. Serve cool or at room temperature topped with the giardiniera and garlic croutons. - Courtesy of Chef Danielle Alvarez Escabeche is a typical Mediterranean style of cooking which is perfect for a warm day or night.
