👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F). If pan-searing, prepare a large oven-safe skillet.

In a large bowl, toss the sliced potatoes and onions with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them in a single layer in a baking dish or oven-safe skillet.

Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and lightly golden. If pan-searing, sauté the potatoes and onions in olive oil until tender and slightly browned.

While the potatoes are cooking, season the swordfish steaks with salt and pepper. In a separate pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the swordfish for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown but not fully cooked through.

Add the sliced garlic to the pan with the potatoes and onions (or to the skillet if pan-searing) and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer for a minute.

Nestle the seared swordfish steaks among the potatoes and onions. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the lemon juice (if using). Cover the dish or skillet and bake for another 10-12 minutes, or until the swordfish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
