GRILLED TUNA WITH ROSEMARY image

Yield 4 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb fresh or frozen tuna steaks
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cloves garlic; minced
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 tablespoon capers; drained & slightly crushed
fresh rosemary sprigs (optional)

Steps:

1. Thaw tuna, if frozen. Rinse and pat dry with paper towels. Measure thickness of tuna. Cut into 4 serving-size portions. Brush both sides of each piece with olive oil and lemon juice; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Rub garlic and rosemary onto tuna. 2. Place fish steaks on a greased grill rack or in a grill basket. Grill on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium-hot coals until tuna flakes easily with a fork (allow for 4 to 6 minutes per 1/2-inch of thickness). If the tuna is more than 1-inch thick, gently turn it halfway through grilling. 3. To serve, top tuna with capers. If desired, garnish with fresh rosemary.
