Swordfish with agghiotta condiment. 2/15/26

Swordfish with tomatoes, olives, and capers, mashed potatoes, and broccoli

This was supposed to be our Valentine’s Day dinner but I made a lot of guacamole that we had with tortilla chips as a treat before dinner and then we were too full to eat dinner. Agghiotta is a Sicilian preparation for serving with swordfish. You can find the recipe here: https://www.seriouseats.com/agghiotta-di-pesce-spada-sicilian-braised-swordfish-with-tomatoes-and-olives-5212333

Rather than braise the fish John cooks it separately in a pan and I make the tomatoes and olives and then we combine them when we plate up. Also I used slivered almonds rather than pine nuts. Almonds are much less expensive and go well in the dish.

This would have been a great Valentines Day dinner but it was just as good on the 15th!
