    1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
    1 teaspoon lemon pepper
    sea salt
    Mango Salsa

    3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

    Burgers
    2 (10 ounce) swordfish steaks, halved (about 3/4 inch thick)
    3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    4 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
    3 tablespoons olive oil
    1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
    1 garlic clove, mashed
    sea salt
    fresh ground black pepper
    4 deli-style rolls
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.
