Procedure
This recipe is not only easy and quick, but it’s also very delicious, ideal when you want a seafood main course but don’t want to spend too much time cooking.
First, put a pot on the stove with salted water and bring to a boil. When the water boils, add the pasta and cook for the time indicated on the package.
Take the swordfish and cut it into uniform cubes of about 3/8 inch on each side, cut the cherry tomatoes in half, and sauté them in a pan with a drizzle of oil until golden on all sides.
Drain the pasta a couple of minutes before the end of the cooking time indicated on the package and toss it in the pan so that it absorbs the flavors. Add a few tablespoons of cooking water for a creamier result.
When the pasta is ready, just serve it on plates.
Your pasta with swordfish and cherry tomatoes is ready!
Plating advice:
You can top the dish with chopped pistachios or flavor it with marjoram. It’s a simple dish with a unique taste, and it doesn’t need much else to be enhanced.
