Preparation
- Step 1
Combine the lemon juice, 4 tablespoons olive oil, rosemary, garlic and ground pepper in a shallow dish. Add the tuna and turn to coat well on all sides. Let marinate for 1 hour, turning tuna from time to time.
- Step 2
Preheat a grill or broiler. Brush the remaining teaspoon of olive oil over both sides of the pepper halves. Grill or broil the tuna and peppers until the tuna is charred on the outside but still pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side, and until the peppers are crisp-tender, about 3 minutes per side. Divide among 4 plates, season the tuna with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.

This is one of my go-to quick dishes, and I'm surprised nobody has commented on it- Trust, me, it's great: the sweetness of the peppers goes really well with the garlic/rosemary/citrus marinade. Don't forget to salt the tuna before serving, and I also enjoy a drizzle of good balsamic over the top.
