[NEW] Sicilian Swordfish

Swordfish is a robust fish that lends itself well to grilling, but for this recipe, working on a pan allows you to meld the flavors of the vegetables with the fish for a dish that is absolute perfection. If you can't find swordfish at your local market, tuna steaks make a good alternative.
