1 can (5 Oz. Size) Chunk Light Tuna In Water, Drained
1 Tablespoon Wasabi Mayonnaise
1 Tablespoon Toasted Sesame Oil
1 Tablespoon Freshly Squeezed Lemon Juice
1/4 cups Water Chestnuts, Chopped

1
In a medium bowl, break up the tuna with a fork.

Add the mayonnaise, sesame oil, lemon juice, water chestnuts, soy sauce, ginger, half of the sesame seeds, honey, chives, garlic, pepper and Sriracha.
3
Stir until combined.
4
Serve on sandwich bread and garnish with additional sesame seeds.

Notes: If you cant find wasabi mayonnaise, simply use regular mayo, Greek yogurt or sour cream and add a small amount of wasabi to taste.
6
I also ate this with a spoon out of the bowl and it was fantastic.
7
I think it would be perfect for serving with veggies, in lettuce wraps, on tortillas or with crackers or pita chips.
