Ingrediente

1/3 c. mayonnaise

Juice of 1/2 lemon

1/2 tsp. crushed red pepper flakes (optional)

2 (6-oz.) cans tuna

1 celery ribs, finely chopped

2 dill pickles, finely chopped

1/4 c. finely chopped red onion

Instrucțiuni

In a large bowl, whisk mayonnaise, lemon juice, and red pepper flakes (if using).

Drain tuna, then add to mayonnaise mixture. Using a fork, break up tuna into flakes. Add celery, pickles, onion, and parsley and toss to combine; season with salt and pepper.

Spread butter on one side of each bread slice. Top an unbuttered side with about 1/2 cup tuna salad, 1 to 2 slices tomato, and 2 slices of cheese. Top with another slice of bread buttered side up. Repeat with remaining sandwiches.

Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 sandwiches, arranging cheese side closest to pan, and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and continue to cook until golden brown on the other side and cheese is melty, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer sandwiches to a plate.

Repeat with remaining sandwiches. Serve warm.
