1
Preheat broiler or oven to 400 degrees F.
-
2
Place cubed tuna into a food processor and pulse it to coarsely grind the fish (it should start to look like ground beef or turkey).
-
3
Transfer tuna to a medium-size mixing bowl and add in the garlic, soy sauce, chives, some salt and freshly ground black pepper.
-
4
Pat the meat down in the bowl and use the side of your hand to roughly score the mixture into four equal portions.
-
5
Scoop one portion out of the bowl and divide the into four equal parts.
-
6
Shape each part into a small patty and reserve on a plate.
-
7
Continue dividing and shaping the remaining tuna until you have 16 patties.
-
8
Place a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of EVOO, about 2 tablespoons.
-
9
When the oil is hot, place the slides into the pan (as many as will fit comfortably, don't crowd the party!).
-
10
Cook until golden brown on the outside and cooked through inside, 3-4 minutes per side.
-
11
Remove the cooked sliders from the pan to a dinner plate and cover them with foil to keep warm while the others cook.
-
12
While the burgers are cooking, split the buns in half and place them onto a baking sheet.
-
13
Toss them into the oven or under the broiler for a few minutes to toast them up.
-
14
Once the buns are toasted and the patties are cooked, assemble the sliders by placing a patty down on each bun, then top them off with a couple slices of pickled ginger, a couple slices of cucumber and a dollop of duck sauce.

Serve each person four sliders and enjoy!
