Tangy Tuna Burgers

Recipe Description

You’ll think these Tangy Tuna Burgers are just a typical all-loving American burger, but they’re not. Made with Asian-inspired ingredients and fresh tuna steaks instead of canned tuna, these burgers are the real deal. Combined and then grilled with garlic, ginger, soy sauce and some coriander leaves, which I love! Then, top your burger with lettuce, tomato and other toppings of your choice and you’ll probably never want a ground beef burger again!

To make Tangy Tuna Burgers, you will need the following ingredients:
