Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained tuna, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, chopped celery, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, egg, garlic powder, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix everything together until well combined.
-
Using your hands, shape the tuna mixture into patties. The size of the patties is up to you, but aim for around 1/2 inch thick for even cooking.
-
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the tuna patties in the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
-
Once the patties are cooked through and nicely browned on both sides, remove them from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
-
Serve the tuna patties hot with your favorite dipping sauce, a side salad, or on a bed of greens. These patties also work great as a sandwich filling or over a bowl of rice for a more substantial meal.

Enjoy your delicious homemade tuna patties!
