NEAPOLITAN PASTA WITH SWORDFISH
The lusty foods and intense wines of southern Italy provide inspiration to spare for cooks and connoisseurs. San Marzano tomatoes, fresh mozzarella, succulent olives, tender pastas and fragrant olive oils, alone or combined, spell sheer enjoyment. The roots of red-sauce Italian, ever popular in the United States, are in the south - in Campania and Naples (its capital city) as well as in Puglia and Basilicata. This recipe is a riff on the traditional pasta alla puttanesca, with tomato, capers, olives and garlic, but without the anchovies. The recipe goes bigger on the fish front, with chunks of seared swordfish to bolster the mixture with meaty, briny notes.

Steps:
- Place a large sauté pan (4 quarts or more) on high heat, add 3 tablespoons of the oil and when it's mighty hot (a piece of fish should sizzle) add the swordfish, spreading the pieces around in the pan in a single layer. Sear about 30 seconds until just starting to brown. Use a spatula to turn the fish, and cook another minute or so. Season with salt and pepper and remove to a bowl. Reduce heat to medium.
- Add another tablespoon of the oil and the capers and cook a couple of minutes until the capers start to crisp and brown. Turn the heat to low, stir in the garlic and cook for a couple of minutes until it barely starts to color. Add the tomatoes and olives. Cook gently, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes to combine the flavors, then turn off the heat. While the tomatoes are simmering bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil for the pasta. Cook the pasta until it's al dente. Remove 1 cup of pasta water, then drain the pasta and add it to the sauté pan.
- Reheat the pasta in the sauce on medium-low heat, folding everything together with a big spoon. Add a half cup or more of the pasta water to give the tomatoes a nice saucelike consistency, stirring until the pasta is well coated. Gently fold in the swordfish and the lemon zest, and stir until you have everything well mixed and heated through. Add more pepper if you wish; the mixture is not likely to demand salt. Transfer to a warm serving dish, scatter parsley on top and serve.

GRILLED MARINATED SWORDFISH STEAKS
Swordfish, with its firm, lean flesh, is an ideal candidate for grilling. It's not as forgiving as some fatty fish, like tuna and black sea bass, so proceed with caution. If you remove the fish from the fire when the center is still slightly pink, by the time it gets to the table it should be cooked through. A quick marinade of soy sauce, red wine vinegar, rosemary, garlic, coriander and cumin pairs beautifully with the meatiness of the fish, but do not marinate for more than 10 to 15 minutes, or the acid will break down the flesh and leave it mushy (or the flavor will overpower the fish). If you don't have a grill, this works equally well in a broiler. Serve this alongside a colorful pile of Pierre Franey's green bean and tomato salad. It's a summer meal you'll never forget. (Swordfish is on the Monterey Bay Aquarium's seafood watch list, but you can find sustainable options here.)

Steps:
- Preheat a charcoal grill or broiler, or heat a grill pan.
- Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper on both sides. Place oil in a flat dish, and add soy sauce, vinegar, rosemary, garlic, coriander, cumin, lemon rind and pepper flakes. Blend well. Place fish steaks in marinade, coat well on both sides, cover with plastic wrap and let stand for 10 to 15 minutes.
- If the swordfish is to be cooked on a grill (or grill pan), place fish on grill and cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and cook for 3 minutes more. Cook longer if desired. If it is to be cooked under a broiler, place fish on a rack and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Serve with a string bean salad.

Add the onions, fennel, bell peppers, and garlic and cook over medium-low heat for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are soft. Put the tomatoes with their juices in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and pulse several times, until very large diced. Add the tomatoes to the sauce, then the chicken stock, white wine, anchovies, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Simmer over low heat for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened. Add the chopped basil, capers, and butter and cook for 1 minute.

Don¿t overcook! Place a puddle of sauce on a serving plate, arrange the swordfish on top, and garnish with extra basil. Serve hot or at room temperature.

Steps:
- For the puttanesca sauce: In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of the grapeseed oil. Add the diced onions, carrots and celery and sweat for about 5 minutes. Add half of the chopped garlic and saute for 3 minutes. Add the crushed tomatoes and bring the sauce to a simmer. Simmer the tomato sauce for 20 to 30 minutes. Add the basil and oregano and then puree the sauce in a blender or with an immersion blender. Set aside.
- In a separate saucepan over medium-high heat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil. Add the sliced onions, remaining garlic and the olives. Saute until the onions are tender. Add the roasted red peppers and saute for another minute. Add the tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Cook the sauce for 5 minutes and then add the capers. Season with salt and pepper and hold warm for plating.
- For the garlic chips: Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot until a deep-fry thermometer inserted in the oil registers 300 degrees F.
- Fry the sliced garlic until crispy and lightly browned. Transfer the garlic chips to a plate with paper towels to absorb the extra oil.
- For the rapini: In a pot, combine 16 cups (1 gallon) water and 2 tablespoons kosher salt and bring to a rolling boil. Prepare an ice water bath. Blanch the rapini in the boiling water, one bunch at a time, for 2 minutes. Shock in the ice bath.
- For the swordfish: Heat a skillet over high heat and add the grapeseed oil. Season the swordfish steaks with salt and pepper and arrange in the skillet. Cook until the first side is golden brown and seared, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip the steaks over and cook for another 3 to 4 minutes. Remove the fish from the pan and allow to rest before plating.
- As the swordfish steaks are cooking, finish the rapini. Heat a saute pan over high heat until smoking. Add the grapeseed oil and then the blanched rapini. Saute until the rapini starts to get color. Add the lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
- For plating: Spoon about 1/4 cup of the puttanesca sauce onto the center of each plate. Place 4 to 5 pieces of rapini on top of the sauce. Place the fish on top of the rapini, and then garnish the plate with garlic chips and chiffonade of basil.
