Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and Sriracha until smooth and evenly combined. (Approximately 1 minute)

02

Step

Add the drained tuna, chopped celery, shredded carrot, chopped dill pickle, and sliced green onions to the bowl. (Approximately 2 minutes)

03

Step

Gently fold all the ingredients together until everything is well incorporated and the tuna salad is evenly coated in the dressing. Be careful not to overmix. (Approximately 3 minutes)

04

Step

Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Add more Sriracha for extra heat, or a pinch of salt and pepper to enhance the overall flavor. (Approximately 1 minute)

05

Step

Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together. This will allow all of the flavors to come together.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of chopped fresh dill or a squeeze of lemon juice.
If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of Sriracha or use a milder hot sauce.
This tuna salad is delicious served on toasted bread, crackers, lettuce wraps, or even as a filling for stuffed avocados.
Feel free to experiment with different types of pickles, such as spicy pickle or bread and butter pickles, to customize the flavor to your liking.
To make this recipe even quicker, use pre-shredded carrots and pre-chopped celery.
