For Bouquet garni wrap 3 sprigs parsley, 1 bay leaf, 1 celery stalk sliced, and pinch of thyme in cheese-cloth. Tie shut. In an ovenproof casserole brown the swordfish in the olive oil. Season with salt and pepper then add the onion, green pepper, tomatoes, mushrooms, and garlic. Sauté for 10 minutes. Add the fish stock (or water) to cover the fish then add the wine or lemon juice, and the bouquet garni.

Pour the sauce over the swordfish to serve and garnish with diced pimentos and capers.
