PREPARATION

1
Pat the sardine fillets completely dry with a paper towel to ensure the skin becomes ultra-crispy.
2
Season both sides of the fillets evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
3
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large cast-iron or stainless steel skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
4
Place the fillets skin-side down in the hot pan, pressing lightly with a spatula for 10 seconds to prevent curling.
5
Sear for 2 to 3 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp, then flip carefully and cook for 1 additional minute.
6
Transfer the fish to a clean plate and immediately top with fresh lemon zest, a squeeze of lemon juice, and the capers.
7
Arrange the baby arugula on a serving plate, place the warm sardines on top, and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
