Grilled Cumin Marinated Swordfish - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    5 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    2 garlic cloves, crushed through a press
    1/4 red onions or 1/4 yellow sweet onion, cut into thin vertical slices
    1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro or 1/4 cup basil
    1 tablespoon fresh oregano leaves or 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
    1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, stripped from stems or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    fresh ground pepper
    4 swordfish steaks, 3/4-inch thick (each steak should be about 1/2 lb. each)
    lime wedge (to garnish)
Preparation
    Combine the first 10 ingredients in a pie plate or some other deep platter; stir well to blend.
    Add the fish steaks to the marinade; turn over to coat.
    Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
    Grill or broil the fish steaks about 3 inches from heat source for 5-7 minutes (time depends on how hot the heat source is), or until lightly browned on one side.
    Turn steak over and grill or broil for about 5 minutes.
    Check for doneness, insert the tip of a knife into the thickest part of the steak--fish is done when it changes color from translucent to opaque.
    Serve steaks on individual plates with lime wedge for garnish.
    I like to squeeze the lime wedge over the fish for extra POW.
