Ingredients

• 2 cans (5 oz each) canned tuna
• 0.75 cups breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg
• 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons, chopped fresh parsley
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
• 0.25 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Drain the canned tuna thoroughly and transfer it to a medium-sized mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add breadcrumbs, egg, mayonnaise, dijon mustard, lemon juice, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the bowl.

Step 3

Mix all the ingredients together using a fork or your hands until well combined. The mixture should be moist but hold together when shaped.

Step 4

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 5

Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Step 6

Once hot, place the patties in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd them (cook in batches if necessary).

Step 7

Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.

Step 8

Transfer the cooked patties to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

Step 9

Serve the tuna patties hot as-is, or use them as a filling for burgers with buns, lettuce, tomato, and your choice of condiments.
