Jalapeño Tuna Melt with Cheddar

Ingredients

Serves 2 Sandwiches

The tuna salad:

  • 3 oz Albacore tuna I like to use Fishwife
  • 1 tbsp Diced jalapeño
  • 1 tbsp Chopped radish
  • 1 tbsp Diced red onion
  • 2 tbsp Whipped cream cheese
  • 1 tsp Kewpie mayo
  • 1/2 tsp Worcestershire
  • 1/3 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese

The rest:

  • Brioche bread (or whatever bread you prefer)
  • Butter for griddling
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • 1/2 cup Shredded sharp cheddar

Instructions 

The tuna salad:

  • Preheat oven to broil. Combine tuna salad ingredients into a bowl until combined. Season to taste. You might want to adjust depending on how creamy or spicy you want it to be.
  • Add shredded sharp cheddar cheese to two slices of brioche bread. Add to a baking sheet and broil for about 2-3 min or until cheese has melted and browned slightly. Add scoops of tuna salad to the sandwich and close.
  • Melt butter in a skillet and add your melt. Cook on medium to low heat with a top until the other side of the bread is browned and cheese and tuna salad have melted together. Enjoy!
