Step 1: Prepare the Tuna Mixture

Drain a can of tuna and place it in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon of finely chopped celery, 1 tablespoon of finely chopped red onion, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix well until all ingredients are combined.

Step 2: Assemble the Sandwich

Spread butter on one side of each slice of bread. On the unbuttered side, spread the tuna mixture evenly. Top with a slice of cheese, and then place another slice of bread on top, buttered side facing out.

Step 3: Grill the Sandwich

Preheat a skillet over medium heat. Place the sandwich in the skillet and cook until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side. Carefully flip the sandwich with a spatula to grill the other side.

Step 4: Serve

Remove the sandwich from the skillet, slice it in half, and serve immediately.
