Steps
1
Pour 1/2 cup of olive oil into a small saucepan and warm on the stovetop over low heat. Whisk in the lemon juice and hot water. Stir in the garlic, parsley, oregano, capers (if using) and season with salt and pepper to taste (go easy on the salt if you're using capers). Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
2
Whisk in lemon juice and 2 tablespoons hot water. Stir in garlic, parsley, oregano, capers (if using), and salt and pepper to taste (go easy on the salt if you're using capers). Keep warm.
3
Brush the swordfish steaks with the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil and season with salt and pepper.

Arrange the fish directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and cook until the fish is opaque and flakes easily when pressed with a fork, about 18 minutes. (If you prefer your tuna or salmon on the rare side, cook for less time.)
