Ingredients
-
¼ stick butter
-
1 small onion, finely diced
-
¼ teaspoon minced garlic
-
½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
-
½ teaspoon chopped fresh cilantro
-
¼ teaspoon onion powder
-
¼ teaspoon sea salt
-
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
-
2 (5 ounce) cans albacore tuna packed in water, drained
-
½ cup mayonnaise
-
3 English muffins, split
-
1 large vine-ripened tomato, cut into 6 slices
-
6 slices American cheese
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
-
Melt butter in a small frying pan over low heat. Add onion and garlic and saute over low heat until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in seafood seasoning, cilantro, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat.
-
Combine tuna and mayonnaise in a bowl. Add the sauteed mixture from the frying pan and blend well with a fork.
-
Place all 6 halved English muffins on a cookie sheet. Spoon on tuna mixture, dividing it evenly between each muffin. Top each with a slice of tomato; add a slice of American cheese.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is melted, about 5 minutes.
Cook's Notes:
If you are not a fan of English muffins, try bagels or any thick-sliced bread such as an Italian or French baguette.
Use your favorite cheese--I like American or provolone.
