In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained canned tuna, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, and egg. Add your chosen seasonings and mix until well combined.

Shape the tuna mixture into patties about 1 inch thick and of equal size.

Place the formed patties on a plate, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Heat a skillet over medium heat and add oil to coat the bottom. Once shimmering, add the chilled patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Transfer patties to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil and serve immediately.
