1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Lemon wedges for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, oregano, parsley, salt, and pepper.
Marinate the Swordfish: Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour for more flavor.
Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Grill the Swordfish: Remove the swordfish from the marinade and place on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Serve: Remove from the grill and let rest for a couple of minutes. Serve with lemon wedges on the side.
