This is similar to classic tuna fish salad but with a kick. My boyfriend made this when we were out of relish and decided to substitute with jalapenos. It was awesome! I added the relish back in to give it a sweetness along with the spiciness.

Categories     Sandwiches

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 can(s) tuna in water drained
1 celery stick diced
1/4 onion diced
3 Tbsp sweet pickled relish
2 Tbsp fat free mayo
CHIPOTLE MAYO
1 c fat free mayo
1 lime juiced
2 chipotle peppers in a can
1/4 tsp salt
2 Tbsp olive oil
TOPPINGS
1 pineapple peeled and sliced
lettuce any kind you like or can find.
bread toasted

Steps:

  • 1. Drain your tuna pretty well. Add mayo and mix. Add chopped onions, relish and celery. Peel your pineapple (it has to be fresh. You can use can but it just wont taste the same). Cut the pineapple into rings and take the core out.
  • 2. In a blender add mayo, lemon juice, chipotle peppers, salt and olive oil blend until well combined. Start toasting your bread (you can use any bread you like).
  • 3. To assemble sandwiches all you do is slather bread with the spicy mayo onto both pieces. Add as much tuna as you like. I like to make mine fat. Add a ring of pineapple on top with some lettuce and top with the other piece of bread. Cut the sandwich in half or quarters what ever you like. These are great party foods or finger foods.

Tips:

  • Make sure the tuna is well-drained: If the tuna is too wet, it will make the sandwich soggy. Be sure to drain the tuna thoroughly before mixing it with the other ingredients.
  • Use a good-quality mayonnaise: Mayonnaise is an essential ingredient in a spicy tuna sandwich. Use a mayonnaise that is made with real eggs and oil, and avoid using low-fat or fat-free mayonnaise.
  • Add some heat: The spiciness of the sandwich is up to you. You can add as much or as little Sriracha sauce as you like. If you don't like Sriracha, you can use another type of hot sauce, such as Tabasco or cayenne pepper.
  • Use a variety of textures: The combination of creamy avocado, crunchy vegetables, and flaky tuna creates a delicious and satisfying sandwich. Be sure to use a variety of textures to create a well-balanced sandwich.
