At least 1 hour and up to 4 hours before you plan to grill swordfish
steaks, prepare dry rub, combining ingredients in a small bowl. Rub steaks
with mixture, wrap them in plastic and refrigerate.
For the vinaigrette: Combining ingredients in a food processor.
Remove steaks from refrigerator and let sit covered at room temperature for
about 30 minutes.
Fire up grill, bringing the temperature to medium-high (3 seconds with the
hand test).
Transfer steaks to a well-oiled grate and grill uncovered over medium-high
heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side, until opaque throughout. Rotate fish 180
degrees once on each side. If there is any resistance when you turn or
rotate fish, re-oil the grate. If grilling 1 covered, cook for the same
amount of time, turning and rotating in a similar manner.
Serve steaks hot, drizzled with vinaigrette,
