1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Form the mixture into patties or cutlets. The size is up to you, but aim for around 4-6 cutlets.

Carefully place the tuna cutlets in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Once cooked, remove the cutlets from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Serve the keto tuna cutlets with your choice of side dishes, such as a fresh salad, steamed vegetables, or cauliflower rice.
