Step-by-Step Instructions
-
Drain and flake – Empty the tuna into a medium mixing bowl. Press out any excess liquid with a fork, then flake the meat into bite-sized pieces.
-
Build the dressing – Add the mayonnaise, lemon juice, celery, and red onion to the bowl. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
-
Mix gently – Stir everything together just until combined—don’t overmix, or the tuna will become pasty.
-
Taste and adjust – Sample the salad and tweak the seasoning, mayo, or lemon juice to your liking.
-
Chill for flavor – Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This resting time lets the flavors meld beautifully.
