Enjoy the bright, zesty flavors of sardines pan-seared to perfection, accentuated with fresh lemon and aromatic herbs, paired with tender, roasted asparagus. This dish balances savory seafood with crisp, flavorful vegetables for a light yet satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
2 Fresh Sardines (approx. 200g total)
1 cup Asparagus Spears (approx. 134g)
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
2 tablespoons Fresh Herbs (Parsley & Thyme)
1 Garlic Clove
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 425°F.
Toss the asparagus with olive oil, salt, and pepper, and spread them on a baking sheet in a single layer.
Roast the asparagus in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, until tender and slightly crisp.
Meanwhile, rinse and pat dry the sardines. Season them generously with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a small drizzle of olive oil if needed.
Add a minced garlic clove and sauté briefly until fragrant.
Place the sardines skin side down in the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crispy.
Carefully flip the sardines and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until just cooked through.
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle with fresh lemon juice. Sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs.
Plate the sardines alongside the roasted asparagus and serve immediately.
