Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
- In a large bowl, combine the butter, herbes de Provence, salt, and black pepper. Cut the fish into 36 1-inch cubes and toss in the butter mixture to coat.
- Thread the fish cubes and lemon onto wooden skewers, 3 per skewer. Wrap a slice of pancetta around and between the fish cubes on each skewer.
- Place the skewers on a small baking sheet and brush with the remaining oil mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to 1 day, turning them occasionally in the oil mixture.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the swordfish kebabs until the swordfish is opaque in the center and the pancetta is crisp, turning frequently, about 10 minutes.
- Transfer the skewers to plates and serve with lemon wedges.
