INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the grill. (Alternately, the swordfish can be prepared in a hot
skillet and cooked for 3 minutes per side.)
In a shallow dish combine the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano and salt and
pepper with a fork. Place the swordfish in the dish and turn to coat with
the marinade. Cover and chill while preparing the cucumber sauce.
Coarsely shred the cucumber onto a clean cloth and squeeze to extract the
liquid. Transfer the cucumber to a bowl and stir in the yogurt, mint and
garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Chill until ready to use.
Grill the swordfish for 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on thickness of
steak. Transfer each swordfish steak to a roll and top with cucumber sauce
and watercress or arugula. Garnish with lemon wedges.
Yield: 2 sandwiches
