Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

Ingredients

1/3 cup minced onion
2 cloves chopped garlic
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound fresh tuna, diced
2 eggs
1/2 cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
Hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco, optional
Cooking spray
4 hamburger buns
2 tomatoes, sliced
1/4 pound Brie, sliced
Sliced kosher pickles
Wasabi, for serving, optional

Steps:

In a small saucepan saute the onion and garlic in oil until tender (without burning the garlic) and set aside to cool.
Combine tuna, eggs, bread crumbs, onion mixture, and hot sauce, in a medium bowl and mix well. Shape into 4 patties (mixture will be very soft and delicate). Refrigerate for 30 minutes to make the patties easier to handle. Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and fry tuna patties for about 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. These are fragile, so be careful when turning them. Serve on buns with tomato slices, Brie and kosher pickles. You may decide to serve wasabi on the side.

My family members were so accustomed to typical beef burgers that they were hesitant to try these when I first made them. Any skepticism disappeared after just one bite. -Kim Stoller, Smithville, Ohio
