Tips
- Use high-quality tuna. Look for tuna that is labeled "pole-caught" or "line-caught." These methods are more sustainable and result in higher quality fish.
- Don't overcook the tuna burgers. They should be cooked through, but still moist and flaky.
- Serve the tuna burgers on a bun with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include lettuce, tomato, onion, and avocado.
- If you're making the burgers ahead of time, cook them according to the recipe and then let them cool completely. Store the burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- To reheat the burgers, thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or at room temperature for about an hour. Then, pan-fry the burgers over medium heat until they are warmed through.
Conclusion
Paleo tuna burgers are a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are packed with protein and omega-3 fatty acids, and they are low in carbohydrates and calories. Plus, they are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy lunch or dinner, give paleo tuna burgers a try.
