Preparation steps
1.
Preheat a gas grill or broiler or prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill. Away from the heat source, lightly coat the grill rack or broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray. Position the cooking rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.
2.
Season the tuna with salt and pepper and drizzle with lemon juice. Place the tuna on a grill rack or broiler pan. Grill or broil until the fish is pink and opaque throughout when tested with the tip of a knife, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Season the tuna with salt and pepper and drizzle with lemon juice and leave to cool slightly.
3.
In a small bowl, combine garlic, mustard, vinegar, and olive oil; whisk to incorporate. Brush one side of each bread slice lightly with vinaigrette.
4.
Arrange the tuna, sliced tomato and lettuce leaves on two slices of bread; season to taste with salt and pepper. Drizzle with vinaigrette and cover with the remaining bread slices. Cut sandwiches in half and serve.
