How to Make Swordfish With Almond Crust

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Prepare swordfish steaks and lemon slices.
  2. In a food processor, combine 1/2 cup slivered almonds, 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 clove garlic (minced), 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Pulse until a coarse paste forms.
  3. Line a shallow baking pan with foil and lightly grease with non-stick cooking spray.
  4. Place swordfish steaks (about 1 inch thick) in the prepared pan.
  5. Evenly spread the almond mixture over the top of each swordfish steak.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
  7. Remove from oven and let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving. Garnish with lemon slices and fresh parsley (optional).
