Swordfish with Fennel and Tomatoes
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min.
YIELD: 4 servings.
Step aside, marinara. There’s a new sauce in town, and it’s blissfully fresh with fennel and basil. TV-inspired and husband-adored, it would be a crime not to share this one. —Laurel Dalzell, Manteca, California
