Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine and achieve the desired creaminess. You can adjust the amount of mayonnaise to your preference.
  2. Add the chopped celery, red onion, and pickles (if using) to the tuna mixture. These ingredients provide crunch and flavor to the tuna salad.
  3. Taste the tuna mixture and adjust the seasonings if needed. You can add more lemon juice, salt, or pepper to achieve the desired taste.
  4. Slice the submarine rolls horizontally, but not all the way through. If using other types of bread, you can slice them as needed.
  5. Lay a slice of provolone cheese on one side of each roll.
  6. Spoon the tuna mixture onto the cheese-covered side of the roll.
  7. Add lettuce, tomato slices, and any other desired toppings on top of the tuna mixture.
  8. Close the sandwich with the other half of the roll.
  9. Your homemade Jersey Mike’s-style tuna sandwich is ready to be enjoyed! You can serve it immediately or wrap it in paper or foil for later.

Remember that the exact ingredients and proportions may vary from the original Jersey Mike’s recipe, but this recipe should give you a tasty tuna sandwich similar to what they offer. Feel free to adjust the ingredients to match your personal taste preferences.
