This is a unique southern Italian recipe that can be prepared in 25 minutes and serves four. It is also low in fat and calories.

200 grams tomatoes
Olive oil for cooking
1 onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, crushed
50 grams black olives
Parsley, chopped, for garnish
Directions:
Briefly boil the tomatoes so you can easily peel them. Preheat the olive oil in a frying pan and then fry the onion and garlic until golden brown. Add the sliced Swordfish. Cover the frying pan and allow the Swordfish to cook. Add the tomatoes after a few minutes. Before removing the Swordfish from the pan, sprinkle the black olives and chopped parsley on top.
