Variations: Do not marinade. Double the pepper and add grated lemon and lime zest to the pepper. >kitpath@... 4/99 NOTES : Often the simplest and best treatment of fresh tuna is to grill it like a steak au poivre. Marinating and quick broiling or grilling keep the fish moist. This recipe is suitable for tuna, swordfish, shark and salmon.
