 Categories: Seafood, Breads, Citrus, Vegetables, Chilies
      Yield: 4 Patties

     12 oz Tuna (2 cans)
      2 ts Dijon mustard
    1/2 c  White bread; in small pieces
      1 ts Lemon zest
      1 tb Lemon juice
      1 tb Water; from the tuna
      2 tb Fresh parsley; chopped
      2 tb Fresh chives, green onions,
           - or shallots; chopped
           Salt & fresh ground pepper
      2 ds Crystal hot sauce
      1 lg Raw egg
      2 tb Olive oil
    1/2 ts Butter

  Drain the liquid from the tuna cans. If you are using tuna packed
  in water, reserve 1 tb tuna water, and add 1 ts olive oil to the
  tuna mixture in the next step.

  In a medium bowl, mix together the tuna, mustard, torn white bread,
  lemon zest, lemon juice, water, parsley, chives, and hot sauce.
  Sprinkle on salt and freshly ground black pepper. Taste the mixture
  before adding the egg to see if it needs more seasoning to your
  taste. Mix in the egg.

  Divide the mixture into 4 parts. With each part, form into a ball
  and then flatten into a patty. Place onto a wax paper lined tray
  and chill for 1 hour. You can skip the chilling if you want,
  chilling just helps the patties stay together when you cook them.

  Heat the olive oil and a little butter for taste in a cast iron or
  stick-free skillet on medium high. Gently place the patties in the
  pan, and cook until nicely browned, 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

  Serve with wedges of lemon. You can also serve with tartar sauce on
  slider buns for a tuna burger.
