Grilled Tuna
by Lucinda Hutson

2 8-oz. tuna steaks or sushi-grade ahi tuna, about 1 inch thick
2 T. lemon thyme (or any combination lemony herbs), minced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 t. freshly ground pepper
Sprinkling of crushed cayenne
1 T. olive oil
Salt, to taste
Fresh lemon wedges

Place tuna in shallow dish. In small bowl, combine all ingredients except lemon. Rub gently into both sides of tuna. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, turning occasionally. On a hot grill or griddle, cook tuna steaks about 3-4 minutes on both sides (or sear ahi for 1-2 minutes each side). Sprinkle with salt and fresh lemon juice.
