Wild Planet Tuna and DOUBLE GRILLED CHEESE

SANDWICH MELTSERVES 4

• 1 Wild Planet Tuna Jar, drained• 8 1/2-inch thick firm white sandwich bread• 2 large eggs• 1/2 cup heavy cream• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, leaves• 1 teaspoon coarse salt• A grating of nutmeg• 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Drain the wild albacore tuna filets and squeeze fresh lemon juice on the fish. Set asidePlace the mozzarella on 4 slices of the bread and fill with fresh wild tuna filets. Cover with the remaining slices to form sandwiches. Trim the crusts off to make perfect 4-inch squares.

In a wide shallow bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the cream, thyme leaves, salt, and nutmeg. Whisk until well blended.

In a 10 to 12-inch non-stick sauté pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat until smoking. Add 1 tablespoon of the butter and cook until the sizzling subsides.

Dip 2 of the sandwiches into the egg mixture, turning to coat, place in the pan, and cook until golden brown on the first side, about 2 minutes. Flip over and brown on the other side.. Cut in half, and serve immediately.
