Tuna Croquettes

My family tries to eat fish at least twice a week.  The hardest thing I've found is keeping enough variety so it doesn't seem like we are eating the same recipes over and over again.  Over the years I've learned a number of different recipes and the best advice I can offer is trying recipes outside of your comfort zone.  If you have a Chinese recipe last time, maybe try an Italian one this time.  So I decided it was time to post another fish recipe.

Tuna Croquettes

 1 7oz  can Tuna, drained and shredded

2 Green Onions, sliced

2 Eggs

3/4 cup Panko Bread Crumbs 

Juice From Half a Lemon
1 tbsp Fresh Parsley

2 tsp Dijon Mustard

1/2 tsp Pink Salt

1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Olive Oil for frying

Serve with Tartar Sauce

In a medium bowl combine all of the ingredients.

Heat a skillet with about a tbsp of olive oil over medium heat and form the tuna mixture into 2 inch balls.  Arrange in skillet and use your spatula to press the balls flat.

Cook for about 2-3 minutes each side.

Drain on a paper towel.

Serve with Tartar Sauce and enjoy!
