Orange-Onion Glazed Swordfish

I made this recipe for my brother and I while our parents were vacationing in Vegas.  They were actually jealous they didn't get to try it it was so good!!

Orange-Onion Glazed Swordfish
1 pound fresh or frozen swordfish steaks
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 medium onion, thinly sliced and separated into rings
1/2 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon snipped fresh basil or 1 teaspoon dried basil, crushed

Thaw & rinse fish; pat dry with paper towels.  Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Coat a large skillet with nonstick cooking spray.  Heat skillet over medium-high heat.  Add swordfish to skillet. Cook, covered, about 12 minutes or until fish begins to flake when tested with a fork, turning once.  Remove fish from skillet; cover to keep warm.

Add butter to hot skillet. Cook and stir onion in hot butter until tender. Carefully stir in orange juice and basil.  Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer, uncovered, for 1-2 minutes or until most of the liquid has evaporated. Spoon onion mixture over fish.
Serves 4
