4 TUNA STEAKS (ABOUT 1 3/4 POUND), EACH ABOUT 1 INCH THICK
FRESHLY GROUND PEPPER TO TASTE
2 TABLESPOONS OLIVE OIL
4 SPRIGS FRESH THYME OR 1/2 TEASPOON DRY
2 TEASPOONS MINCED GARLIC

2 TEASPOONS LEMON JUICE
1 TEASPOON GRATED LEMON RIND
1/4 TEASPOON RED PEPPER FLAKES
2 TABLESPOONS MELTED BUTTER

1. Preheat A Charcoal Grill Or Broiler.

2. Sprinkle The Tuna With Salt And Pepper On Both Sides. Place The Oil In A Flat Dish And Add The Thyme, Garlic, Lemon Juice, Lemon Rind, And Pepper Flakes. Place The Tuna In The Marinade And Coat Well On Both Sides. Cover With Plastic Wrap And Let Stand In A Cool Place (not The Refrigerator) For 15 Minutes.

3. Remove Tuna From The Marinade. Add The Butter To The Marinade And Set Aside.

4. If The Tuna Is To Be Cooked On A Grill, Place It Directly On The Grill, Fatty Side Down, And Cook, Turning Often, 5 To 6 Minutes. If It Is To Be Cooked Under A Broiler, Arrange The Tuna On A Rack, Fatty Side Up. Broil About 2 Inches From The Heat, Leaving The Door Partly Open. Cook 3 Minutes And Turn; Continue Cooking 2 Minutes For Rare Tuna. If You Want It Medium-rare, Cook Another Minute On Each Side. Transfer The Tuna To The Marinade. Turn The Tuna To Coat It On Both Sides. Cut Into Thin Slices Or Serve In Steak Sizes.
