Tuna Burger Glaze Recipes

Steps:

• Mix the first 6 ingredients; fold in tuna. Shape into 4 patties. , In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Cook patties until lightly browned, 4-5 minutes on each side. Serve on buns. If desired, top with lettuce and tomato.

Steps:

• Combine the tuna, olive oil, panko, parsley, chives, garlic, salt, pepper, paprika, and egg in a large bowl until evenly mixed.
• Divide the mixture into 4 portions and form patties with your hands.
• Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Place the patties in the pan and cook for 3-5 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
• Serve on whole wheat buns with your preferred toppings.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Make the glaze: Combine all the glaze ingredients in a 1-quart saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until the glaze coats the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes. Strain through a sieve and reserve in a warm place until tuna burgers are cooked. (The glaze can be prepared up to 2 days ahead and stored, covered, in the refrigerator.)
• Make the burgers: Grind the tuna in a meat grinder or chop with a large sharp knife to the texture of hamburger meat. (Do not use a food processor, which will shred the tuna rather than chop it.)
• Transfer the ground tuna to a bowl and combine with the garlic, mustard, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly. Divide the tuna into 4 equal portions. Using your hands, roll each part into a smooth ball and then flatten into a compact patty.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the tuna burgers until browned and medium rare, 3 to 4 minutes a side. Serve each burger on a buttered toasted bun and spread with a tablespoon of warm glaze. Garnish the burgers with equal amounts of pickled ginger slices.

Steps:

• Prepare the sauce: Pulse the carrot and ginger in a food processor until finely chopped. Add the vinegar, sesame oil, soy sauce and sugar and process until smooth. Drizzle in 2 tablespoons water and combine; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the sauce to a bowl and set aside.
• Prepare the burgers: Chop the tuna into chunks. Wipe out the food processor and add the tuna; pulse a few times to break up the pieces. In a bowl, mix 2 tablespoons olive oil, the soy sauce, lime juice, cilantro and ginger; season with salt and pepper. Pour over the tuna and process until well blended. Form into 4 patties; brush each lightly with the remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil.
• Preheat a grill or grill pan. Once hot, add the burgers and cook for 2 minutes on each side for rare, or to desired doneness.
• Toss the sprouts in the carrot-ginger sauce. Place the burgers on buns and top with avocado and sprouts.

Steps:

• Add the sesame oil, soy sauce, red pepper flakes and egg to a large mixing bowl. Mix well, then fold in the tuna, red bell pepper and scallions. Mix well to coat everything evenly. Sprinkle with salt and fold in the panko breadcrumbs to lightly bind everything. Carefully form the mixture into 4 even-size patties and set on a platter. Refrigerate so the patties firm up and hold their shape when cooked, 15 to 20 minutes.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Coat the pan with a little vegetable oil and cook the tuna patties 3 minutes per side (when done, the patties will be browned on the outside and medium-rare in the center).
• Grill the hamburger buns over high heat until well charred and crispy.
• Serve the tuna burgers slathered with the Spicy Sriracha Mayo, lettuce leaves and tomato slices on the toasted, seeded hamburger buns, paired with the dry Riesling.
• Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, Sriracha, sesame oil, lemon juice, honey and scallions in a large mixing bowl. Stir well to combine, season with salt and pepper and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Mince the fish using a sharp knife. Do not use a food processor. Add the remaining ingredients (except the olive oil and lime wedges) and blend together with a spatula or spoon. Shape into 1/2-inch thick patties and refrigerate, if possible, for 1 hour.
• Heat a heavy nonstick skillet or a griddle over medium-high heat. Brush with olive oil and turn the heat to medium. Sear the patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, depending on how cooked you want the interior to be. Serve on buns, if desired, with the condiments of your choice.

Steps:

• To make the glaze, combine the pineapple juice, vinegar, shallot, and ginger in a small nonreactive saucepan and cook over medium heat until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a blender and blend until smooth.
• Return the mixture to the saucepan, add the brown sugar, and cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the soy sauce, mustard, and lime juice and season with salt and pepper. Transfer to a bowl and let cool to room temperature. The glaze can be made 1 day in advance and stored in a container with a tight-fitting lid in the refrigerator. Bring to room temperature before serving.
• Meanwhile, to make the relish, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Put the chiles on a rimmed baking sheet, rub them with the oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast in the oven until the skins of the chiles are blackened, about 15 minutes. Remove the chiles from the oven, place in a bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and let the chiles steam for 15 minutes. Peel, stem, and seed the chiles and then finely dice them.
• Combine the chiles, pickles, onion, lime juice, honey, cilantro, and oil in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before serving so that the flavors meld. The relish can be made 8 hours in advance and stored in a container with a tight-fitting lid in the refrigerator. Let come to room temperature before serving.
• Cut the tuna into large pieces and then coarsely chop in a food processor. Do not overprocess. (Alternatively you can chop it by hand with a sharp knife.)
• Whisk together 2 tablespoons of the oil, the mustard, honey, and chipotle in a large bowl. Add the tuna and green onions and gently fold to combine. Divide the tuna mixture into 4 equal portions (about 6 ounces each). Form each portion loosely into a 3/4-inch-thick burger and make a deep depression in the center with your thumb. Place on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and let chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
• To cook the burgers, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil in a sauté pan or griddle (nonstick or cast iron) until it begins to shimmer. Season both sides of each burger with salt and pepper. Cook the burgers until golden brown on the bottom sides, about 3 minutes. Turn over, brush with some of the glaze, and continue cooking until medium, about 3 minutes longer.
• Place the burgers on the bun bottoms, drizzle with more of the glaze, and top with the relish and pickled red onions, if using. Cover with the burger tops and serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the Sauce: combine all glaze ingredients in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer about 5 minutes. Reserve in a warm place until tuna burgers are cooked.
• For the Burgers: Chop the tuna to the texture of hamburger meat.
• In a large bowl, combine chopped tuna with garlic, mustard, cayenne, salt and pepper.
• Mix well and divide into 4 equal portions.
• Form into patties.
• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the burgers and sear until browned and medium rare, about 3-4 minutes per side(or longer for well done burgers).
• Brush each burger with glaze and serve on a buttered toasted bun with pickled ginger bits.

Steps:

• Combine tuna, egg, bread crumbs, onion, celery, red bell pepper, mayonnaise, hot chili sauce, chili sauce, dill, salt, pepper, hot pepper sauce and Worcestershire sauce. Mix well. Shape into 4 patties (mixture will be very soft and delicate). Refrigerate for 30 minutes to make the patties easier to handle, if desired.
• Coat a non-stick skillet with cooking spray; fry tuna patties for about 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until cooked through. These are fragile, so be careful when turning them.
• Serve on buns with tomato slices and lettuce leaves, if desired.
