Tuna Melt Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna Mixture

    In a bowl, combine canned tuna, mayonnaise, celery, red onion, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwich

    Spread a generous amount of the tuna mixture on two slices of sourdough bread. Sprinkle grated cheddar cheese on top of the tuna mixture. Cover with the remaining slices of bread.

  3. 3

    Cook the Sandwich

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt butter. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side. Flip carefully to avoid spilling the filling.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Once both sides are golden and the cheese has melted, remove the sandwiches from the skillet. Slice in half and serve warm.
