I never liked swordfish much til I had it sliced thin and flash-grilled. This keeps the flesh moist and succulent. You’ll need to ask your fish seller for a piece of the swordfish loin so you can slice it yourself or have him do it for you. The difference in eating pleasure is worth the effort.

Cooks' Note

Make sure you get coconut milk, not cream of coconut. The only ingredients listed on the can should be coconut milk and water.
