Description

Easy canned tuna burgers with a Cajun kick and no egg. Quick tuna patties that come together in about 10 minutes for a protein-packed lunch or dinner.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 cans of Tuna
  • 4 Green Onions, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 6 tablespoons of Mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon of Lemon Juice (fresh or bottled)
  • 1/2 teaspoon of Cajun Seasoning

Instructions

  1. Spoon out your Tuna in a large bowl. (Please read the directions on your can to determine if your Tuna needs to be drained.)

  2. Add all of your other ingredients except your Green Onions. Mix well until the contents are well blended.

  3. Add your sliced Green Onions and stir well.

  4. Construct your burgers using an Egg Ring or by hand.
  5. (Optional): Refrigerate for an hour to help the burgers maintain their shape.

  6. Cooking Methods: Stovetop or Grill

    1. Stovetop: Spray a nonstick skillet with your favorite nonstick spray. Place your Tuna Burgers in the pan. Heat on medium-high, flipping every 4 – 5 minutes until your desired brownness is achieved. Remove from heat. 

    2. Grill: Spray a grill-safe pan or skillet with your favorite nonstick spray. Place your Tuna Burgers in the pan or on the Cast Iron skillet. Heat on medium-high, flipping every 4 – 5 minutes until your desired brownness is achieved. Remove from heat. 

  7. (Optional): Place your Tuna Burgers on Brioche Rolls. Add 1 tsp of Mayonnaise to each roll, and add your favorite toppings. Serve immediately.
