  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped onion
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, beaten egg, chopped onion, parsley, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.
  2. Shape the mixture into 4 equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Carefully place the tuna patties in the hot skillet.
  5. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and heated through.
