Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Green Goddess Tuna Salad
- Rinse the canned tuna under cold water in a fine mesh sieve to remove excess sodium and fluids. Set aside in a mixing bowl.
- In a high-speed blender, combine the mayonnaise, chives, basil leaves, fresh dill, garlic, and freshly squeezed lemon juice. Blend for 30 to 45 seconds until smooth.
- Transfer the drained tuna to the blender with the dressing. Pulse gently until the tuna is evenly coated, preserving some chunks.
- Taste the salad and season with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to your liking.
- Serve immediately over toasted bread, crackers, or a bed of greens; or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
- For a tuna melt, spread the salad on bread, sprinkle with cheese, and heat in an air fryer or oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes.
