Ingredients
3 (6-ounce) cans light tuna in water, drained
1/3 cup light mayonnaise
3 tablespoons seasoned dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 hamburger buns or Kaiser rolls
1 beefsteak tomato, sliced
1/4 cup thinly sliced sweet pickles (such as gherkins)
Directions
- In a large bowl, combine the tuna, mayonnaise, bread crumbs, parsley, mustard, hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix well and shape the mixture into four equal patties, each about 1-inch thick.
- If you're stopping here:
- Wrap the burgers tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 3 days or freeze up to 3 months. Thaw completely in the refrigerator or microwave for 3 to 4 minutes on LOW before cooking.
- When you're ready to eat:
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Unwrap the burgers and cook until golden brown and heated through, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Serve the burgers on buns with sliced tomato and pickles.
