Ahi Fish Burgers With Chives

Ahi Tuna makes this burger taste delicious!  Tastes wonderful with lime tarter sauce (or regular tarter sauce) on a bun or I sometimes serve it on top of a salad.

A simple mixture of minced Ahi Tuna, onions, chives, and panko crumbs, fresh garlic, seasoned with paprika, sea salt and fresh pepper fried in olive oil is a great alternative to the popular beef burger. Serve on buns with your favorite condiments.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 pound fresh Ahi Tuna Steaks, minced
• 1 carrot, grated
• 1/2 cup onion, chopped
• 1/2 cup chopped fresh chives
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup panko crumbs or breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
• 1 clove fresh garlic 
• freshly ground black pepper to taste
• sea salt to taste
• paprika to taste
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• **  I add sliced, pickles jalapenos as a topper to give it a kick! 

DIRECTIONS:

In a large bowl, mix together tuna, carrot, onion, chives, eggs, panko crumbs, and mayonnaise. Season with garlic, paprika, salt and black pepper. Form into patties.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Arrange patties in the pan (only as many as will fit easily in the pan). Cook, uncovered, 10 minutes per side, or until golden brown.
