Preparation
Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Empty the cans of drained tuna into a large glass bowl, tumble in the celery, scallions, and parsley, stir ingredients gently throughout using a fork. Pour in the lemon juice, stir, add in the mayonnaise, one tablespoon at a time stirring lightly after each addition, tasting then for binding and desired creaminess, then sprinkle in the salt and pepper. Top each half of an English Muffin with the tuna salad, sprinkle over the shredded cheese, packing down the cheese just a bit so it stays on, sprinkle the cheese with oregano. Place topped muffins onto the aluminum foil covered baking sheet and bake for approximately ten minutes, another few minutes under the broiler, until cheese is golden brown, serve hot immediately.
