How to Make Swordfish Salad With Salsa Dressing
On her first date with him, Robyn Webb's husband ordered swordfish. All these years later, he still requests this salad once a month. If swordfish is not a favorite of yours, use salmon, halibut, haddock, or sea bass, all of which work wonderfully well in this dish.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
- In a nonreactive pan, place the swordfish with the orange juice, olive oil, lemon juice, and cayenne pepper and marinate for 15 minutes.
- Coat an outdoor grill with cooking spray and set the rack 6 inches from the heat source. Set the heat to medium-high. Alternatively, coat an indoor grill pan with cooking spray and place it on medium-high heat.
- Grill the swordfish on each side for about 12-15 minutes, until opaque in the center. Remove the swordfish from the grill and allow to cool. Cut into 1-inch pieces.
- Combine all ingredients for the salsa. Toss the swordfish with the salsa.
- Combine the olive oil, red wine vinegar, and sugar. Whisk together well. Toss the greens with the dressing. Pile the swordfish salad on top of the lettuce. Top with almonds.
