For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a dash of Worcestershire sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes to the mixture. Ensure the tuna is well-drained to prevent the patties from becoming soggy. For best results, use a high-quality nonstick skillet to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking. These patties can also be baked in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, for a healthier alternative. Experiment with different herbs and spices to customize the flavor profile. Consider adding fresh parsley, chives, or a pinch of garlic powder.
