Skillet Tuna Burger
These quick tuna burgers are a great and easy way to switch up your burger options this summer.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 cans chunk light or flaked light tuna drained well
- Wasabi Mayo 1/4 cup mayonnaise mixed with one teaspoon wasabi paste * wasabi optional
- 2-3 small mushrooms diced
- 1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
- 2 eggs whisked
- 1 or more teaspoons garlic powder
- sprinkle of lemon pepper
- salt to taste
- 1 tbsp oil I used a combo of olive oil and sesame oil
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients into a medium sized bowl (first with a fork and then with hands to mix really well)
- Form burgers carefully with hands (you'll notice that they are more moist than regular burgers, so may take a bit more time forming the burgers so that they stick). Place on a plate delicately.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat and add oil. Carefully place burgers into skillet (don't over-crowd) and pan fry on both sides until golden brown (you may want to press down gently as they are cooking with a spatula).
- Once cooked, remove from pan and transfer to a whole grain bun. I served with more wasabi mayo, lettuce and tomatoes.
