Grilled Fresh Sardines Recipe
Ingredients
-
900kg/2 lb very heavy fresh sardine, gutted and
with heads removed
-
olive oil, for brushing
-
salt and ground black pepper
-
45ml/3 tbsp chopped fresh parsley, to serve
-
lemon wedges, to garnish
Serves 4-6
Method:
-
Preheat the grill. Rinse the sardines in water. Pat
dry with kitchen paper.
-
Brush the sardines lightly with olive oil and
sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Place the
sardines in one layer in a grill pan. Grill for
about 3-4 minutes.
-
Turn, and cook for 3-4 minutes more, or until the
skin begins to brown. Serve immediately, sprinkled
with parsley and garnished with lemon wedges.
Notes: Frozen sardines
are now available in supermarkets and will keep well in
the freezer for 6 weeks. Thaw them in the fridge
overnight, then use a sharp pointed knife to slit the
belly, remove the innards and cut the heads off. For a
further flavor, you might like to leave them whole, as
they do in some Mediterranean countries.
