Instructions
- Prepare charcoal, wood chips or grill for grilling.
- Place swordfish in a shallow bowl. Whisk the lemon juice and oil together in a small bowl, then stir in the garlic and onion. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the marinade over the swordfish. Cover the bowl and let marinate, tossing occasionally, in the refrigerator for 6 hours.
