• Chill for at least 30 minutes.
• Mix together the sour cream with the lime juice.
• Set aside. 
• In a sauté pan, gently brown the tuna rice sliders in olive oil for approximately 2 minutes per side or until golden brown. 
• Serve on slider buns over a piece of lettuce and drizzle lime-sour cream dressing over top of the slider.
• Alternative serve sliders as finger food with additional sprigs of chives for garnish and the dressing on the side.
