this is a recipe from Sargento, and they have a real winner here! The only thing I changed was using a can of sliced green chilies, instead of the whole ones. It worked fine. We loved it! Served with a salad, it was a meal.. There are only two of us, so we halfed the recipe. Thanks Sargento!!
Ingredients:
1 (4 ounce) can whole green chilies, drained
1 (12 ounce) can solid white tuna packed in water, drained, flaked
1/4 cup mayonnaise or 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
1 tablespoon pickle relish
3 tablespoons butter, softened
8 slices sourdough bread or 8 slices multi-grain bread
8 slices sargento deli style sliced monterey jack pepper cheese, jalapeno and habanero peppers or 8 slices sargento deli style sliced colby-monterey jack cheese
Directions:
1. Cut green chilies open and remove seeds. Cut lengthwise into halves; set aside. Combine tuna, mayonnaise and pickle relish in medium bowl.
2. Spread butter on one side of each bread slice; arrange butter-side down on large plate. Place cheese slices on bread. Top four bread slices with chilies and tuna mixture; close sandwiches with remaining bread slices butter-side up.
3. Cook sandwiches on a hot griddle or in batches in a nonstick skillet over medium heat until golden brown and cheese has melted, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
