Ingredients

  • 1 (12 ounce) can tuna, drained

  • ½ cup chopped scallions

  • ½ cup dry bread crumbs, or as needed

  • 1 large egg

  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • 1 teaspoon Sriracha

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, or as needed

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  2. Combine tuna, scallions, bread crumbs, egg, mustard, garlic powder, Sriracha, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix until the mixture sticks together. Divide into 6 equal portions and shape into patties.

  3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Pan-fry the patties until deeply browned and crispy, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to a small baking tray.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until the center of the fish cakes are firm, 5 to 7 minutes.
