1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh oregano -- minced or 1
-- teaspoon dried

salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 four ounce pieces swordfish (about 1/2-

1 medium cucumber -- peeled and seeded

Prepare the grill. (Alternately, the swordfish can be prepared in a
hot skillet and cooked for 3 minutes per side.)
In a shallow dish combine the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano and salt
and pepper with a fork. Place the swordfish in the dish and turn to
coat with the marinade. Cover and chill while preparing the cucumber
sauce.
Coarsely shred the cucumber onto a clean cloth and squeeze to extract
the liquid. Transfer the cucumber to a bowl and stir in the yogurt,
mint and garlic. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Chill until
ready to use.
Grill the swordfish for 2 to 3 minutes per side depending on thickness
of steak. Transfer each swordfish steak to a roll and top with
cucumber sauce and watercress or arugula. Garnish with lemon wedges.
