1. Make the Filling
In a small bowl, flake drained tuna with a fork until no large clumps remain.
Add mayo, pickles, dill, pepper, and salt. Stir gently—just until cohesive. Overmixing = dense, rubbery texture.
2. Build the Base
Lightly toast bread if desired (prevents sogginess; highly recommended for soft breads).
Spread tuna mixture evenly over one slice—leave a ¼-inch border to avoid overflow.
3. The Game-Changing Crown
Do not mix chips into the filling. Instead, arrange 4–6 whole or halved kettle chips on top of the tuna layer. Press gently to adhere—but keep them intact for maximum crunch.
Top with second slice of bread.
4. Serve with Intention
Cut diagonally (maximizes crust-to-filling ratio).
Serve immediately—before the chips soften.
Tips for Perfect Gravy
(Note: This sandwich needs no sauce—but for a lemony aioli drizzle, whisk 1 Tbsp mayo + ½ tsp lemon zest + drop of hot sauce.)
