Teriyaki Swordfish Recipe

This teriyaki swordfish recipe teaches you how to make delicious swordfish flavored with traditional Japanese seasonings. These seasonings include dashi, mirin, and soy sauce. The swordfish is cooked with garlic to enhance the aromatics of the dish. I like to serve the fish with a simple green garnish such as lettuce.
