Steps
1
Fill a small pot with salted water and bring to a boil.
2
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add eggplant and cook, stirring, until golden and tender, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer eggplant to paper towels to drain.
3
Add garlic to skillet, lower heat to medium-low, and cook, turning occasionally, until lightly golden, about 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, remove and discard garlic.
4
Increase heat to medium-high and add swordfish. Cook, stirring, until fish is opaque and just starting to brown lightly, about 2 minutes.
5
Meanwhile, add pasta to boiling water and cook until al dente, according to manufacturer's recommended timing.
6
Add tomatoes and white wine to skillet and cook until wine has reduced slightly and its raw-alcohol smell is mostly gone, about 2 minutes. Use a wooden spoon to break up the swordfish slightly. Stir in herbs and season sauce with salt.
7
Return cooked eggplant to skillet. When pasta is cooked, transfer to skillet as well, along with about 1/4 cup (60ml) pasta-cooking water. Cook, stirring, until sauce has reduced to a silky glaze.
8
Drizzle a generous dose of olive oil all over pasta, toss to combine, then transfer to bowls or plates and serve.
