I am not a huge fan of tuna but enjoy it every now and then. If I'm really going to enjoy it, it has to be spicy, imagine that, lol. This skillet version of a tuna melt came about because my oven is still on the fritz (hopefully it will be fixed the end of the month) and I liked it well enough to decide to keep the recipe. Loved the veggies in this! Yummm!
12 oz can white albacore tuna, drained
1/2 cup sour cream
1 jalapeno, chopped
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp coriander
1/2 tsp coarse sea salt or to taste
1 Tbsp dried chives
1 small avocado, chopped
1/3 cup chopped tomato
1/3 cup chopped red onion
Butter
3 slices of bread
3 slices of colby jack cheese
In medium bowl mix together tuna, sour cream, jalapeno, cumin, coriander, salt, chives, avocado, tomato and onion.
Set aside. Butter one side of a slice of bread and place butter side down in a small skillet. Top with a slice of cheese and 1/3 of the tuna mixture.
Cook over med-high heat until bread is browned and cheese is melted. Repeat with remaining two slices of bread.
Serve and enjoy!

ReplyDeleteEasy is always a plus!
DeleteAnother thing we agree on. Tuna is something I eat only occasionally. This is a great weeknight (meaning crazy night) dish. Thank you for sharing, Terry!
ReplyDeleteWish I had thought of this when the kids were home. Lots of crazy week nights!
