LACQUERED SWORDFISH WITH GREEN ONIONS

Steps:

• To make the onions, stir the sesame seeds in a heavy small dry skillet over medium heat until brown. Place in a small dish and set aside. Heat the peanut and sesame oils with the ginger in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the green onions and stir-fry until almost tender, about 1 minute. Add the water and soy sauce and stir-fry until tender, but still crunchy, about 1 minute more.
• To make the swordfish, mix the sugar and pepper in a large soup plate. Dip one side of each steak in the mixture. Heat the oil in 1 very large or 2 smaller nonstick skillets over medium-high heat (you will need more oil if using 2 skillets). Add the swordfish, coated side down, and cook until the bottom is browned and caramelized, about 3 minutes. Pour the soy sauce in the skillet(s), cover and cook until the fish is glazed and just opaque throughout, about 1 to 2 minutes.
• If necessary, rewarm the onions by stirring over medium-high heat. Place 1 swordfish steak on each of 4 plates, top with the onions and sprinkle with the reserved sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
