Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna Filling

    In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, chopped pickled peppers, and Calabrian chili aioli. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Lay out the slices of bread. On two of the slices, generously spread the tuna mixture. Top with spring greens, then cover with the remaining slices of bread.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwich

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the assembled sandwiches. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bread is golden brown and crispy.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove from heat, slice the sandwiches in half, and serve warm with extra Calabrian chili aioli on the side if desired.
