Step-by-Step Instructions

1
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, olive oil, garlic, salt, and pepper. Place the swordfish steaks in a shallow dish and brush the marinade on both sides of the fish. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
2
Remove the swordfish from the marinade and place it on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
3
While the swordfish is cooking, prepare the quinoa according to package instructions. Toss with chopped fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice.
4
Roast the asparagus in the oven with a drizzle of olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Cook for 12-15 minutes, or until tender and slightly caramelized.
