• Get Ready: Gather all your ingredients before you start cooking.
  

Cook the Swordfish

• Season the Swordfish: Pat the swordfish steaks dry with a paper towel to ensure a better sear. Sprinkle both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  
• Cook the Swordfish: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil is hot and the pan is properly heated, place the swordfish steaks into the skillet. Cook each side for about 4 to 5 minutes until they develop a golden brown exterior and are cooked through. Additionally, sear the edges of the steaks for 30 seconds on each side to ensure even cooking.

  Tip: Flip the fish when a lighter color appears halfway through the thickness of the steak. The swordfish is done when it becomes opaque all the way through.
  
• Baste the Swordfish: Add butter to the skillet and baste the fish for 30 seconds, enhancing its flavor and moisture. Turn off the heat and keep the swordfish warm while you prepare the sauce and side dish.
  

Cook the Broccoli

• Sauté the Broccoli: Add oil to the skillet and heat it over medium-high heat. Introduce the broccoli florets to the pan and cook for about three to four minutes until they begin to soften. Season the broccoli with salt and pepper to taste.
  
• Add Liquid: Pour a splash of white wine and 1/4 cup of water into the skillet. Cover the pan with a lid and cook for an additional five minutes, or until the broccoli is tender yet still crisp. Once done, remove the broccoli from the heat and set it aside.
  

Make the Garlic Butter Cilantro Sauce

• Prepare the Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine two tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil with three tablespoons of butter. Allow the butter to melt completely, then add one teaspoon of minced garlic. Cook the garlic for about 30 seconds until it becomes fragrant. Stir in one tablespoon of capers and a bunch of chopped cilantro leaves. Squeeze in a splash of fresh lemon juice and mix everything together. Let the sauce simmer for a minute or two to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
  

Put It All Together

• Assemble the Dish: Place the cooked swordfish steaks on a serving plate alongside the sautéed broccoli. Drizzle the warm garlic butter cilantro sauce generously over the swordfish, ensuring each piece is well-coated. For an extra burst of flavor and a touch of freshness, garnish the dish with a few additional cilantro leaves and a lemon wedge.
