fresh-ground black pepper, to taste

sweet red pepper slivers and lime wedges, garnish

Method: Preheat oven to 350 degreeF. If necessary, trim dark parts from tuna. In a small bowl, combine thyme, oil and black pepper into a smooth paste and rub into each piece of fish. Place fish in an ovenproof glass baking dish and bake uncovered until cooked through, 30 to 45 minutes, depending on thickness. Place fish on serving platter and serve hot, strewn with pepper slivers, with lime wedgus on the side. 4 servings.

    My son would love this recipe. He is addicted to tuna. Unfortunately tuna is the only food I really dislike. He doesn’t take after me. Good work.

    Nearly all fish contain traces of mercury and in most fish this is not a problem. But certain fish contain relatively higher levels of mercury.
    Pregnant women and women intending to become pregnant should avoid shark, marlin and swordfish. They may also need to limit the amount of tuna they eat….. just thought I would mention it.
