  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.

  2. Brush the swordfish steaks with olive oil and season them generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

For the Pineapple Salsa:

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the diced pineapple, red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, and jalapeño (if using).

  2. In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, honey, salt, and pepper.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Cheesesteaks can be a surprisingly reasonable fast food choice when you look at the macros — thinly shaved beef is a lean protein, and Arby’s version skips the garlic spread of the 2025 model in favor of caramelized onions, which cuts some of the added fat. If you’re watching your sodium, the Cooper Cheese is the biggest contributor — asking for light cheese is an easy modification at the counter. Pairing the sandwich with water instead of a fountain drink keeps the overall meal more balanced, and skipping a side entirely is a practical option given the sandwich’s size.
