PREPARATION

1
Pat the butterflied sardines dry with a paper towel to ensure the skin becomes perfectly crispy during searing.
2
Season both sides of the fish evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.
3
Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.
4
Place sardines in the pan skin-side down and sear for 2-3 minutes without moving them until the skin is golden.
5
Carefully flip the sardines, then add the minced garlic and capers to the pan, cooking for 1 additional minute.
6
Squeeze the lemon juice over the fish and sprinkle with the freshly grated lemon zest and chopped parsley.
7
Arrange the fresh arugula on a plate and top with the hot sardines and the flavorful pan juices.
