2. Marinate the Swordfish: Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow bowl or dish. Pour the prepared marinade over the steaks, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let the swordfish marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes. For a more intense flavor, you can also refrigerate the marinating swordfish for several hours.

3. Preheat the Grill: While the swordfish is marinating, set up your gas or charcoal grill. Brush the grill rack with a bit of oil to prevent sticking and ensure a good sear on the fish.

4. Grill the Swordfish: Once the grill is preheated, arrange the marinated swordfish steaks on the rack. Grill for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is nicely seared on the outside and cooked through. The swordfish should be opaque and flake easily with a fork when fully cooked.

5. Serve and Enjoy: Remove the swordfish from the grill and let it rest for a minute or two before serving. Enjoy your delicious Lemon Thyme Swordfish with a side of fluffy rice and freshly steamed broccoli.
