Directions
Stir the tuna, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, and egg together in a medium bowl until everything is well combined. Shape the mixture into about seven patties. Heat some oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, then cook the patties for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until they’re lightly browned. While the patties are cooking, warm up your pasta sauce in another pan until it’s gently simmering. Once the patties are browned, transfer them to the sauce, cover the pan, and let everything simmer together for about 10 minutes so the flavors can meld. Serve warm and enjoy!
Serving Options To Try
Serve this dish alongside a fresh green salad or steamed vegetables to balance its richness. A crusty bread or garlic toast also pairs well and helps soak up any extra sauce.
How To Freeze This Dish
