Crispy Breaded Swordfish
Pickled Cherry Pepper Sauce with Dijon Mustard and Garlic, Arugula Salad

Swordfish Milanese combines the best parts of a classic Italian breaded cutlet with the firm, meaty texture and clean flavor of swordfish, which stays juicy when pounded thin and pan-fried. The crisp golden crust contrasts beautifully with the hearty fish, which holds up well to bold toppings or sauces. Paired with a bright lemony arugula salad, and a lively cherry pepper sauce, it feels hearty yet fresh—special but unfussy.

The cherry pepper sauce adds a tangy-sweet kick with gentle heat from sweet pickled cherry peppers, warmth from sautéed garlic, and a touch of Dijon for sharpness. Vermouth brings a fragrant note, while chicken stock ties it all together, creating a zesty, balanced sauce that wakes up every bite.
