TANGY TUNA PATTIES

i came up with this recipe as a healthy snack that is very tasty and portable. the patties freeze well and reheat quickly in the microwave, so i often make extra batches to freeze. you can eat them in a sandwich, or just as is, with your fingers!

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 20m

Yield 9 patties

Number Of Ingredients 6

12 ounces tuna, water packed,drained
2 eggs or 2 egg substitute
3 tablespoons heinz-style chili sauce
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
1 -2 cup oatmeal (regular will work better than 'quick oats')
ground pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients EXCEPT OATMEAL in a large bowl, and mix well.
  • Mix in 1/4 cup oatmeal at a time, until mixture is a good texture to form into patties.
  • It should still be moist, but not drippy.
  • If you are not in a hurry, put the bowl in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to make the mixture easier to form into patties.
  • Otherwise, go directly to next step.
  • Cover broiler pan with foil and coat with cooking spray.
  • Form mixture into a ball with your hands, and then flatten into a pattie and put on broiler pan.
  • You can make whatever size you prefer, but make sure they are not very thick, or else the outside will burn before the inside is cooked.
  • I usually end up with 9 patties per batch.
  • Put pan in broiler and broil for about 8 minutes, or until top starts to brown.
  • Take out the pan, flip the patties, and cook another 6 minutes or so, until other side browns.
  • Remove from broiler and eat!

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality tuna. Opt for tuna that is packed in water or oil and avoid tuna that is packed in brine, as it will be too salty.
  • Drain the tuna thoroughly. This will help to prevent the patties from being too mushy.
  • Add moisture. If the tuna is too dry, you can add moisture by mixing in an egg, mayonnaise, bread crumbs, or cracker crumbs.
  • Season the patties well. Tuna is a mild-flavored fish, so it's important to season the patties well with salt, pepper, and other spices. You can also add herbs, such as dill, parsley, or chives.
  • Cook the patties over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the patties immediately. Tuna patties are best served hot, right out of the pan.

Conclusion:

Tangy tuna patties are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They are easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. Whether you like them simple or spicy, tangy tuna patties are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
