Quick and Easy Tuna Burgers
My friend Trixie introduced me to these. I like this recipe not just because tuna burgers are quick and easy to make while being satisfying to eat, but also because it offers another way of using canned tuna, that ubiquitous but often uninspiring ingredient. Here's what you'll need:
A can of tuna (of course), hamburger buns, an egg, breadcrumbs, your favorite mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper. And of course, any condiments you like on your burger.
Mix everything together and you'll have a mixture that looks something like this:
Now you've come to a crossroads. You can either take the entire mixture and shape it into one large patty, or divide it in half and shape into two smaller patties. A lot will depend on the size of your buns. Mine were small, so I went with two patties. Place the patty in a preheated pan -- no added oil necessary. Isn't that nice?
After about 4 minutes, it'll be ready to flip. The done side will be nice and browned. Cook the other side until done, and that's it.
Dress the burger(s) your favorite way. I've got cheese, pickles, and Sriracha sauce on mine (don't judge me). Serve with fries, chips, or fruit!
