Ingredients
-
1 (15 ounce) can mackerel in brine, drained
-
1 small onion, chopped
-
1 (5 ounce) can tuna packed in water, drained
-
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
-
¼ cup mayonnaise
-
2 eggs, beaten
-
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
-
2 teaspoons salt-free seasoning blend (such as Mrs. Dash)
-
1 teaspoon paprika
-
1 teaspoon dried sweet basil
-
1 (3.5 ounce) bag pork rinds, crushed
-
butter-flavored cooking spray
Directions
-
Combine mackerel, onion, tuna, Parmesan cheese, mayonnaise, eggs, Dijon mustard, seasoning blend, paprika, and basil in a bowl. Add pork rind crumbs, 1 to 2 tablespoons at a time, until mixture holds together; form into balls then flatten into 1/2-inch-thick cakes.
-
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; coat with cooking spray. Arrange cakes, in batches if needed, in the skillet; coat each cake with cooking spray.
-
Cook cakes until browned, 3 to 5 minutes; gently flatten cakes with the back of a fork. Flip cakes; cook until other side is browned, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer cakes to a paper towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining cakes.
