Method
To Prepare: Mix first 8 ingredients plus ½ teaspoon salt in a medium non-reactive bowl. Add swordfish pieces; toss to coat. Cover and let stand at room temperature at least 1 hour. (Can be marinated up to 3 hours)
To Cook: Heat oven to 200ºF. Heat oil in a Dutch oven or electric deep fryer to 365ºF. Transfer swordfish from marinade to a sieve. Drain swordfish; discard marinade. Pat swordfish pieces dry with paper towels, and then dredge in flour.
Working in batches to avoid over crowding, fry swordfish until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain swordfish pieces on paper towel; transfer to a heatproof platter and keep them warm in the oven until ready to serve. (Can be kept warm in the oven up to ½ hour)
