Preparation

let’s go to the kitchen

Fusilli with swordfish stew. Immediately put the water for the pasta on the stove. Meanwhile, in a pan, add a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, chopped garlic, chopped capers, pitted and chopped olives, chili pepper, chopped celery, and wild fennel, and sauté for at least 3 minutes.
Then add the diced swordfish, mix and cook until the fish turns white. Usually, it takes 2 or 3 minutes.
As soon as the fish changes color, add the diced cherry tomatoes and adjust the salt, so they will release their water which will help us create the stew, but be careful with the salt, as the capers are already salty. Cover and cook for another 4/5 minutes.
In the meantime, cook the pasta and drain it when it’s 3/4 cooked.
In a wok, combine the pasta with the stew which, in the meantime, will have released some water. This will help continue the cooking. Then complete it by tossing the pasta over high heat until it’s cooked to your liking.
Plate with a nice bunch of basil. Here are the Fusilli with swordfish stew.
Make sure the fish is very fresh.
