Prepare a gas grill for cooking over direct high heat. (If you don't have a gas grill, cook the tuna on a lightly oiled 2-burner ridged grill pan over moderately high heat, turning once, 4-6 minutes total.)

Cut peppers lengthwise into quarters, discarding stems and seeds. Trim ends to that quarter lie flat

Season tuna with 1 tsp of salt and 1/2 tsp 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, 4-6 minutes total (peppers may take longer than tuna)

Add oil in a slow stream, whisking until emulsified

Whisk in capers and parsley

Serve tuna topped with peppers and caper vinaigrette
