Make these simple and budget-friendly tuna patties for a quick and satisfying meal. They are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cans (5 oz each) tuna, drained
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, beaten egg, chopped onion, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
  2. Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Carefully place the tuna patties in the hot skillet.
  5. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and heated through.
  6. Remove the patties from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

Notes

  • Serve with your favorite tartar sauce or a squeeze of lemon.
  • These patties are great on a bun as a tuna burger.
  • For a healthier option, you can bake these at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through.
