Preparation

Cut your fresh tomatoes in half, arrange them on a baking tray, season them with salt, brown sugar, herbs and extravirgin olive oil. Bake for 1.30h at 140°. Toast the pinenuts in a nonstick pan. Season the swordfish with extravirgin oil and a pinch of coarse salt. Grill it over a high heat. Serve with your confit tomatoes and the toasted pinenuts.

Tips
Don't forget to pair your swordfish with a good white wine if possible from Sicily, such as an Alcamo.
Trivia
The fishermen from Calabria and Sicily use to pronounce some sentences in Greek while they catch the fish. This habit comes from an ancient tradition coming actually from Greece.
