i've found the trick with swordfish is grilling it, and then making sure you have the right sides to accompany it. Brochettes are a good way to go.
Sounds like a good approach. Seems firm enough to stand up to grilling well. The few times I’ve enjoyed it, I think it was grilled.

indeed, other than blackened catfish to cover up a muddy taste, my preference for fish is a simple broil with lemon / butter

although fried flounder or cod is also acceptable

I also eat the hell out of anchovies, herring, sardines, and mackerel, but enjoy them as a snack out of the tin, not in the way I eat the other fishes.

Can’t forget about sardines. Talk about a superfood!

Love it. It’s commonly served as a whole fish. Lots of olive oil. Grilled lemon and maybe olives, or other veggies.
Had it in Italy last year. Magnificent.

Do fish feel pain when they get hooked or is that part of the fish not nerved up?
