Garlic-Pepper Swordfish with Parsley Salsa

1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
6 cloves garlic, crushed - divided use
1 tablespoon cracked black peppercorns
1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf (Italian) parsley
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon capers
1 tablespoon brown mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt, divided use
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 (6-ounce) swordfish steaks

1. Combine 1/2 cup olive oil, 4 crushed garlic cloves, and 1 tablespoon cracked black peppercorns in a small, heavy saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Remove from heat and let sit at room temperature to steep.
2. Preheat grill.
3. Meanwhile place parsley and remaining garlic in a food processor; pulse until finely chopped. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of oil, capers, mustard, half the salt and pepper and process until smooth; transfer to a small bowl and set aside.
4. When ready to grill, brush each swordfish steak with garlic-pepper oil and season with salt. Place swordfish on a lightly oiled grill. Cook, basting once or twice with garlic-pepper oil, until done, about 8 minutes.
5. Place swordfish on individual dinner plates and garnish each serving with a dollop of parsley salsa. Serve immediately.

Makes 4 servings.
