Impanata di pesce spada is a traditional Sicilian swordfish pie. The dough is usually made with a combination of flour, butter, sugar, egg yolks, lemon peel, and salt, while the filling is made with a combination of swordfish, onions, tomato paste, olives, capers, zucchini, eggs, flour, celery, and olive oil.
The onions are browned in olive oil and mixed with olives, celery, capers, and tomato paste. The swordfish is cut into small pieces, seasoned, and added to the pot. The dish is cooked over low heat until it's well reduced. The zucchini are cut into strips, dipped in eggs, rolled in flour, and fried in oil.
