A
fter six or more weeks of steady consumption of party foods and drinks, most people
are grateful for January to start, a month when traditionally attention is turned to
eating more healthfully. Think you’ll be stuck eating nothing but carrot and celery
sticks? Not a chance! We asked chefs Joe Buck of Gubanc’s Pub, Rob Hollen of Manzana Ro-
tisserie Grill and Jerome Valenty of Zeppo’s Italian Restaurant to share recipes of the healthy
cuisine featured on their menus this month. Eating healthy never tasted so good! Stop by
and order these dishes at the restaurants or make them at home.

Broiled Swordfish with Corn & Two
Bean Salad
Swordfish is a low-calorie and low-fat fish that is
rich in omega-3 fatty acids and a plethora of vita-
mins and minerals. –
Serves 2
Two 6-ounce swordfish filets
Kosher salt
Course black pepper
Corn & Two Bean Salad:
2 ears of corn
½ cup great northern beans
½ cup black beans
½ red bell pepper – diced
¼ large onion – diced
1 ½ cups romaine and iceberg – shredded
Roasted Red Pepper Dressing:
2 red bell peppers – roasted and peeled
½ cup sour cream
1 cup olive oil
1 tsp roasted garlic
1 tbsp ground oregano
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp salt
½ tsp course black pepper
Prepare the salad:
Roast the corn by removing the husks and placing in on the
top shelf of the oven with your broiler on. Turn the corn
once it starts to darken and cook until the corn is roasted to
your liking. Allow the corn to cool then carefully remove the
kernels with a knife. Place into a bowl with the two types of
beans, red bell pepper, onion and lettuces.
Prepare the dressing by roughly chopping the roasted red bell
peppers and placing them in a food processor with the sour
cream. Process until smooth then add the olive oil with the
processor on. Next, add the roasted garlic, ground oregano,
chili powder, lemon juice, salt and course black pepper. Pro-
cess to combine. Adjust seasonings to taste. Add the dress-
ing to the corn mixture as light or as heavy as you would like.
Prepare the swordfish:
Heat olive oil in a heavy saute pan. Season both sides of the
swordfish filets with kosher salt and course black pepper.
Sear the filets to medium rare and serve with the corn salad.
