Tuna Patties - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup dried seasoned bread crumbs
2 tablespoons snipped chives or 2 tablespoons green part scallions
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1 egg yolk
1 tablespoon pickle relish
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 (6 ounce) cans chunk light tuna in water, drained
2 tablespoons light olive oil or 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Preparation

Spread 1/4 cup of the bread crumbs in an even layer on a sheet of waxed paper, reserve.
With kitchen scissors, snip enough chives or green part of scallion to measure 2 tablespoons.
In a medium bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, egg yolk, chives, pickle relish, and cayenne pepper until combined.
Flake the tuna into a bowl.
Add the remaining 1/4 cup bread crumbs and stir until well combined.
Drop 1/4 of the tuna mixture onto the crumbs on the waxed paper and form into an oval patty (about 3 inches).
Coat both sides in crumbs.
Repeat with the remaining tuna mixture and crumbs.
Heat the olive or vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.
Add the patties and cook until golden brown and heated through, about 3 minutes per side.
