Tuna Burgers

1. Combine ingredients in the bowl of a food processor and pulse until finely chopped - about 6 pulses. Do not overprocess.

2. Shape the mixture into 4 burgers. Set these on a plate so they are not touching, cover well with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour.

3. Place a skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high heat, add the oil, and let it get hot - about 2 minutes.
4. Arrange the burgers in the pan so they aren't touching. Cook uncovered for 2 minutes. Turn and cook about 2 minutes more. The burgers should be rare to medium-rare.

5. Serve on a hamburger bun.
