Preparation
Prepare the Relish: In a small bowl, combine the diced roasted red bell pepper (¼ cup), diced cherry tomatoes (¼ cup), chopped Kalamata olives (2 Tbsp), chopped basil (1 Tbsp), minced red onion (1 Tbsp), capers (1 tsp), olive oil (1 Tbsp), lemon juice (1 tsp), dried oregano (¼ tsp), and black pepper (¼ tsp). Mix thoroughly and set aside to let the flavors meld.
Cook the Swordfish: Pat the swordfish steak (6 oz) dry with paper towels and season with salt and black pepper. Melt the butter (1 Tbsp) in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the swordfish for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and just cooked through (internal temp about 135°F). Remove from the skillet and let rest for 2 minutes.
Assemble the Dish: Place the seared swordfish on a serving plate. Top generously with the roasted pepper-basil relish. Drizzle with olive oil (1 Tbsp) before serving.
"The garage gym tradition is revered and respected. The number of athletes training in garages, barns, and abandoned buildings is legion. Many of these are world dominant in their sport. Some go this route because no other resources are available, but most have chosen the garage-gym realizing it best provides for their needs. The lifting, throwing, jumping, and climbing essential to responsible programming will find no welcome home for you and your friends at 24-Hour Nautilus."
