Paula Deen'S Tuna Burgers - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 (6 ounce) cans solid white tuna, drained
1/2 cup breadcrumbs
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1 tablespoon chopped pimiento (optional)
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons prepared horseradish
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large bowl, combine the tuna, bread crumbs, and egg, and stir lightly.
Add the onion, celery, pimento (if using), lemon juice, horseradish, garlic, and pepper, and mix again.
Form the mixture into 4 patties. Heat the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat and cook the patties, covered, until golden brown. (We began cooking on the grill and finished in the oven). Carefully flip the patties and cook the other side for 5 minutes.
Finish baking in the oven until golden brown.
