    Chef Notes:
    Make-Ahead: This recipe is meant to be served as soon as it is finished cooking.
    How to Reheat: Place the desired amount of food into a medium size pan and cook at 350° for 4-7 minutes or until warm. You can also heat in the microwave.
    How to Store: Cover and keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To freeze, separate the tomato topping from the swordfish, cover and keep for up to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator for 1 day before reheating.

    You can absolutely use frozen swordfish just make sure it is thawed before cooking.
    If you do not have shallots, you can use a regular onion to replace them.
    Any olive would work in the recipe, but I recommend using an Italian olive.
    It is imperative to pat the fish dry on both sides with a paper towel before adding oil.
