Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tuna Mixture

    In a medium bowl, mix together the drained albacore tuna, capers, dill mayonnaise, and finely chopped red onion. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Assemble the Sandwiches

    Spread one side of each slice of bread with butter. On the unbuttered side, place a generous amount of the tuna mixture, then top with shredded cheddar cheese. Place another slice of bread on top, buttered side up.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sandwiches

    Heat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwiches in the skillet and cook until the bottom is golden brown, about 4-5 minutes. Carefully flip the sandwiches and cook the other side until golden and the cheese is melted, another 4-5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve warm. Enjoy your Biggest Little Tuna Melt!
