Pretty good, I grilled as well, but forgot to add salt and pepper which is key. Tasteless without it. Served with lemon wedges as well and caprese salad.

I loved this dish! I grilled the swordfish instead of sauteing it, but primarily stuck to the recipe. Best part, it only took 30 minutes! For additional comments check out my blog post: http://www.icancookthat.org/2011/12/grilled-rosemary-swordfish-with.html

A great recipe. Very easy to prep and make with delicious results the very first time. If you have someone who is not a fan of olives, substitute small capers instead.

Very attractive presentation and delicious taste. I added extra vegetables to the vegetable couscous (yellow squash, kale, and avocado) and it wasn't too much. I will definitely make this again.
