Ingredients

  • 2 cans Bumble Bee Snackers™ Hickory Smoke Flavor Tuna
  • ⅓ cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil, divided
  • 4 rings pineapple (from can)
  • 1 small red onion, sliced into ¼” rounds
  • 4 brioche slider buns, sliced lengthwise
  • 4 teaspoons mayo
  • 4 leaves baby gem lettuce
  • Barbecue sauce, optional for serving

Directions

  • In a mixing bowl, stir to combine tuna, bread crumbs, and egg. Divide into four equal portions and form into patties.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm 1 tablespoon oil. Once shimmering, add tuna patties and cook until golden brown, 2-3 minutes per side. Set aside.
  • In the same hot skillet, warm remaining oil. Cook pineapple and onion rings until browned, 1-2 minutes per side. If desired, place buns (cut side down) to toast about 1 minute.
  • On bottom buns, evenly spread mayo and top with lettuce, tuna patty, onion, and pineapple. On top buns, evenly spread barbecue sauce, if using, and cap burgers to serve.
