Preparation

Make the Mango Salsa: combine the mangoes, onion, cilantro, and lime juice in a glass bowl; season to taste with salt and pepper; toss thoroughly.
Cover and chill at least 1 hour.
Make the Herb Butter: in a bowl, mix the butter, chives, parsley, and lemon pepper; season with salt; set aside.
Make the burgers: trim the swordfish pieces to fit the rolls.
In a bowl, whisk the lime juice, soy sauce, olive oil, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper.
Add the swordfish, tossing to coat it; cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Preheat a broiler or charcoal/gas grill to medium-high heat.
Broil or grill the burgers, flipping once, until the cooked sides are browned, about 4 minutes on each side.
Spread herbed butter on deli rolls; place swordfish on roll bottoms; top with salsa and set roll tops in place.
