Reduce the baking time to 10 minutes by first microwaving the potatoes in step 1. Place potato quarters in a microwave-safe dish; cover. Microwave on HIGH for 8 minutes. Uncover and proceed as recipe directs in step 2.

Gingery Swordfish Steaks

Fresh ginger is essential for the special flavor of this entrée. For the best price, purchase the gingerroot in an Oriental market. Freeze the leftover piece and simply grate off what is needed without defrosting.
