BROILED TUNAWICHES



Broiled Tunawiches image

I am a tuna fish addict. So there is always some sort of tuna mixture in my fridge. ** Broiled Tuna Bites Substitute the muffins halves with whole grain/wheat crackers. If you like relish in your salad mix and are making the bites, I like to use thin pickle slices versus adding the relish to the salad mix. Next time I make...

Categories     Other Main Dishes

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 can(s) (61/2-oz) tuna, drained
1/4 c finely chopped onion
1/4 c mayonnaise
2 Tbsp chopped seeded cucumber
1/4 tsp dried dill weed
2 whole grain english muffins, split, toasted
4 tomato slices
4 slice cheddar cheese
4 green leaf lettuce leaves
sweet or dill relish (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat broiler.
  • 2. In a medium bowl, combine tuna, onion, mayonaise, cucumber, and dill; mix well.

  • 4. Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat for 4 to 5 minutes or until tomato is hot.
  • 5. Top each with cheese slice. Broil 1 to 2 minutes or until cheese melts.

Tips for Perfect Broiled Tuna Sandwiches:

  • Choose high-quality tuna: Look for solid white tuna packed in water or oil. Avoid tuna flakes or canned tuna with added fillers.
  • Use a flavorful bread: Choose a sturdy bread that can hold up to the tuna mixture, such as sourdough, French bread, or whole-wheat bread.
  • Add moisture to the tuna mixture: To prevent dry tuna sandwiches, add mayonnaise, Greek yogurt, or a flavorful dressing to the tuna mixture.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different toppings, such as sliced tomatoes, shredded lettuce, sliced cucumbers, or chopped hard-boiled eggs.
  • Broil the sandwiches until golden brown: Keep a close eye on the sandwiches while they are broiling to prevent them from burning.
