Grilled Tuna And Peppers With Caper Vinaigrette
- 3/4 lb Italian fry peppers (light green)
- 2 (3/4-lb) sushi-grade tuna steaks (1-inch thick)
- 1 1/4 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons small capers in brine, drained and chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
- Prepare gas grill for cooking over direct high heat.
- While grill heats, cut peppers lengthwise into quarters, discarding stems and seeds. Trim ends so that quarters lie flat.
- Sprinkle tuna all over with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. Cook tuna and peppers on lightly oiled grill rack, turning over once, until tuna is pink only in center and peppers are just tender, 4 to 6 minutes total (peppers may take longer than tuna). Transfer tuna and peppers as cooked to a serving plate.
- While tuna cooks, whisk together lemon juice, mustard, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl, then add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified. Whisk in capers and parsley.
- Serve tuna topped with peppers and caper vinaigrette.
