How to Make Baked Swordfish Manzanillo

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Pat 1 pound (450g) swordfish steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  3. Place the swordfish in a lightly oiled baking dish. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil over the fish, ensuring it's evenly coated.
  4. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions over the fish.
  5. Bake uncovered for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
  6. Transfer the baked swordfish to a serving platter. Garnish with 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley, 2 lime wedges, and 4 cherry tomatoes, halved.
