Method

Tuna Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Tuna

    In a bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Coat the tuna steaks in the marinade and let them sit for at least 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Grill the Tuna

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the marinated tuna steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the desired doneness is achieved. Remove from the grill and let rest for a few minutes before slicing.

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and let drain on paper towels.

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Slice the tomato and avocado (if using) into thin slices. Wash and dry the lettuce leaves.

  3. 5

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread. On one slice, layer the lettuce, grilled tuna (sliced), bacon, tomato, and avocado. Top with the second slice of bread, mayonnaise side down.

    Cut the sandwich in half and serve immediately, with any additional sides if desired.
