This recipe is fabulous!! We've made so many versions of it. We first tried it as an appetizer entree on Christmas Day and it was so delicious that even my family members who never tried swordfish said it was delicious. Since then, we've tried many different variations by adding chicken to the recipe, shrimp and even just serving the pasta on the side with the citrus pesto sauce. It has become a staple when entertaining and it is always a hit. Definitely a keeper!

Easy, delicious and different. I have found over 90% of Giada's dishes I would make. She is not a person consumed with "jalapeno" everything or putting "dijon" mustard in everything. Not everyone wants to eat six alarm food! Bravo, Giada!

Very good! I didn't have pine nuts so I just left them out, I think next time I'll definitely use them or walnuts. The pesto was a little runny without them. I didn't make it with pasta, we had asparagus and mashed potatoes on the side. I was really impressed with this, we were in tihe need of something fresh and light tasting!!

This recipe is wonderful.. so easy to make. Refreshing and healthy. It?s great with roasted shrimp and use as a dipping sauce. We have found so many ways to serve this pesto. It?s a staple on our summer table. Giada you have done it again!!

This pesto is so fresh and fragrant, a great change from the "usual"...we often make fish without the pasta and serve the pesto on the fish with roasted vegetables! Amazing!!!

My husband and i wanted to eat something fresh and new for dinner, found this recipe and both loved it! i didn't have the pine nuts so i omitted them, and it was still awesome. we will defiantly make this again, maybe even try with the nuts this time. we would highly recommend it to anyone! we also got fresh pasta from the store which i think made it over the top! Great dish!

this dish is all about the citrus pesto--a definite must-try. it's easy and different and super delicious! we are big fans of swordfish in my house, but not so hot on pasta, but we love to mix and match. this recipe is great for that.

I absolutely love this recipe! I've been a fan of Giada for a while now and enjoy her show but this is my 1st go at trying on of her recipes. The only thing I will change next time I make it is that I'll use the juice and zest of half an orange. I felt that the orange was a little overpowering but even with that, everyone loved the dish. I did roasted shrimp rather than swordfish because I'm not a fan of swordfish. My boyfriend and brother both loved it. Definitely will be making again. Great job Giada!
