Categories     Sandwiches

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 can(s) 6 oz albacore tuna
1/4 c finely diced red onion
1/4 c extra virgin olive oil
1 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 Tbsp minced basil
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper
salt and freshly ground pepper
4 ciabatta rolls, split
dijon mustard and mayonnaise, for spreading
8 ¼-inch-thick slices of tillamook sharp cheddar or tillamook swiss cheese
24 slices garlic dill pickles
2 Tbsp tillamook unsalted butter, softened

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium bowl, mix the tuna with the onion, olive oil, vinegar, basil, and crushed red pepper. Season with salt and pepper.
  • 2. Heat a panini press or griddle. Spread the cut sides of the rolls with mustard and mayonnaise and top each roll half with a slice of cheese.
  • 3. Spread the tuna salad on the bottoms and cover with the pickles. Close the sandwiches and spread the outsides of the rolls with butter.
  • 4. Place the sandwiches on the press or griddle and cook over moderate heat until the cheese is melted, about 6 minutes. To make sure the sandwiches are fully cooked, open them up and place in a 450°F oven for about 1 minute.
  • 5. Remove from oven, close sandwiches, cut in half, and serve.

I tried this recipe last night and it was delicious! I used sourdough bread and it added a nice tang to the sandwich. I also added a few slices of avocado, which made it even more creamy and flavorful. Highly recommend!
