Prepare the mango sauce:

- Add the mango pieces, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Blend with an immersion blender until smooth and creamy.
Prepare the filling:
- Cut the bread into cubes and place in a blender.
- Add fresh basil leaves (reserve some small ones for garnish), lemon zest, olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Blend until you obtain fine, uniform crumbs.
Assemble the rolls:
- Lay out the swordfish slices and place a spoonful of the breadcrumb mixture in the center of each.
- Fold the longer sides inward and roll up from the bottom to form a roll.
Cook the rolls:
- Heat a non-stick skillet with a drizzle of olive oil.
- Place the rolls seam-side down and cook over medium-high heat for about 1 minute to seal.
- Gently turn the rolls until all sides are evenly browned, about 2–3 minutes in total.
Serve:

- Drizzle with the mango sauce and garnish with the reserved basil leaves.
