This is a typical dish of southern Italy. Swordfish is marinated in a lemon and oil mixture, then fried and cooked with broad beans and white wine.

ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 600g swordfish, cut into chunks
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon plain flour
  • 1½ cups (375ml) dry white wine
  • 500g broad beans, fresh or tinned
  • 1 bunch fresh parsley, chopped

preparation method

  1.   In a medium bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, the lemon juice, salt and pepper. Add the fish and stir enough to get it coated. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes. Remove fish from the marinade and pat dry.
  2.   Heat the remaining olive oil in a large frypan over medium-high heat. Fry the onion until golden, then add the fish. Brown the chunks of fish on all sides, then remove from the pan and set aside.
  3.   Stir the flour into the frypan; cook and stir until lightly browned. Gradually stir in the white wine. Return the fish to the pan and add the beans. Sprinkle with fresh parsley, cover, and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve hot.

To prepare fresh broad beans

Shell the beans and discard the pods. Boil the beans for 2 minutes, strain and then immediately plunge into ice water. Let cool for 2 minutes then pierce the beans and squeeze them out of their skins.
