Steps:
- Start a charcoal or wood fire or preheat a gas grill or broiler. In a medium bowl or blender, add lime juice, soy sauce, olive oil, sesame oil, pepper and 2 tablespoons water. Whisk or blend until emulsified. Soak greens in this mixture while preparing the tuna.
- Using a sharp, thin-bladed knife like a boning knife, make a small horizontal incision halfway down any side of the tuna steak. Insert the knife almost to the opposite edge of the steak, then swing it back and forth, turning the knife as necessary to keep the blade facing the direction you're cutting. The goal is to create a large pocket. Be careful not to cut through the top, bottom or opposite edge of the tuna, and try to keep the entry point relatively small.
- Drain the greens of excess marinade and cram them into the pocket; you can overstuff as long as you don't tear the tuna (the tuna won't shrink, nor will the greens expand). If the pocket opening is small, seal it with a toothpick; if it's more than an inch or two wide, use two skewers. Marinate the tuna in the remaining soy mixture until the grill is hot, or up to an hour at room temperature or several hours refrigerated.
- Grill the tuna, turning once, a total of about 6 minutes an inch of thickness (if your steak is 1 1/2 inches thick, for example, turn it after about 4 minutes and cook 4 or 5 minutes more). Season with salt and pepper, cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices and serve.

TUNA MELT
Legend has it that the tuna melt was accidentally invented in the 1960s at the Woolworth's lunch counter in Charleston, S.C., when the cook didn't notice that a bowl of tuna salad had tipped over onto a grilled cheese. We may never know if this story is true, but there's no doubt that the tuna melt has become a classic American diner food. This recipe adds chopped cornichons and whole-grain mustard for a satisfying crunch and vinegary element. Extra-sharp Cheddar is a must, and as with grilled cheese, the key to achieving perfectly melted cheese and golden bread is to toast the sandwich over medium-low heat. If you prefer an open-face tuna melt, skip the top piece of bread and place the sandwich on a sheet pan under the broiler until the cheese melts.

Steps:
- Place the tuna in a medium bowl and flake with a fork. Add the mayonnaise, cornichons, red onion, lemon juice, dill (if using), mustard, salt and pepper. Mix well.
- Depending on the size of your bread, spoon 1/3 to 1/2 cup tuna salad on each of four slices of bread, heaping it in the middle slightly. Divide the cheese among the sandwiches, tearing and arranging the cheese to fit neatly. Place a piece of bread on top of each and generously spread the top piece of each sandwich with about 1/2 tablespoon butter.
- Heat a 10-inch skillet over medium-low. Place two sandwiches, buttered-side down, in the skillet, and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until the bottom pieces of bread are golden brown.
- Meanwhile, spread the top of the each sandwich with another 1/2 tablespoon butter. Carefully flip the sandwiches, turn the heat to low, and cook for 3 to 4 more minutes, until the bottoms are browned and the cheese is melted. Repeat with the remaining two sandwiches and serve immediately.

- Assemble sandwiches: Place slices of bread out onto cutting board or work surface. Lightly butter each. Reserve four slices to the side. Invert the other four slices buttered side down onto the work surface. Add a dollop of the Dijon-mayonnaise to each, smoothing it out evenly across the surface of the bread. Add two slices of tomato to each, along with a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Add tuna salad spreading it out evenly over the tomato slices. Add a rasher of bacon on to each, cutting in half first to fit nicely onto each mound of tuna. Add slice of cheese followed by the remaining slices of bread buttered side up.
- Grill sandwiches: Set sandwich grill or skillet onto moderate heat. When the surface comes to temperature, add one or two sandwiches and grill until bread is toasted a rich golden brown. Feel free to press the sandwich down if using a griddler. Invert the sandwich carefully and repeat until the sandwich is grilled on both sides. Cut sandwiches in half or quarters and serve immediately.

- Stir together everything in a bowl, mixing it well, leaving the mayonnaise for last. Add mayonnaise a spoonful at a time, just enough to bind everything together. The salad should hold its shape on a spoon. (You can make the tuna salad up to three days ahead. Store covered and refrigerated. Drain off any accumulated liquid and stir well before using.)
- Cover one side of each bread slice with butter or mayonnaise, spreading it all the way to the edges. Turn the slices over and cover with cheese, either sprinkling it or tearing the pieces to fit. Top with tuna salad.
- Close the sandwiches and cook on a griddle or in a large skillet over medium-high heat until deep golden brown and crisp, about 3 minutes per side, pressing lightly with the spatula. Serve immediately.
