Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna Mixture

    In a large bowl, combine the canned tuna, smoked paprika, mayonnaise, celery, red onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwiches

    Lay out the slices of sourdough bread. Spread a generous amount of the tuna mixture on two slices, and top with shredded cheddar cheese. Place the remaining slices of bread on top to create sandwiches.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwiches

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the sandwiches to the skillet. Grill each side for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly. Cut in half and serve warm.
