how to cook swordfish without a grill?

Question

i recently started learning how to cook, and i absolutely LOVE fish like swordfish and salmon. I had no problem cooking the salmon on the stove, but the swordfish came out awful! i don't have easy access to a grill, so i cooked it stove-top in some olive oil and a little salt and pepper. the finished result was a tasteless, chewy, probably overcooked mess. any suggestions for better fish?

Answer 1

Bry broiling. Place the steak in a nonstick pan, baste with butter(real) and salt and pepper (or spice) to taste.

Broil in the oven about 12-15 minutes and ooooh baby!
