Let's Cook
-
Step 1.
Preheat the oven broiler. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
-
Step 2.
In a small mixing bowl, add the tuna and break it apart with a fork. Taste the tuna to gauge saltiness; add ½ teaspoon fine sea salt if the tuna seems bland.
-
Step 3.
Fold in 4 to 5 teaspoons lemon juice, 6 tablespoons Avocado Aioli or mayonnaise, and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Add 1 tablespoon capers (for saltier) or sweet pickle relish (for sweeter), and stir to combine. Taste again and adjust lemon juice and salt as desired.
-
Step 4.
Lightly toast the split English muffin halves under the broiler or in a toaster until just golden, not fully browned. Place the muffin halves on the prepared baking sheet.
-
Step 5.
Divide the tuna salad equally among the muffin halves. Top each with a slice of Havarti cheese, then a slice of heirloom tomato on top of the cheese. Grind black pepper over each tomato slice.
-
Step 6.
Place the baking sheet under the broiler and broil for 2 minutes, checking after 1 minute. Broil until the cheese is fully melted and starting to bubble at the edges. Serve immediately.
