Pan-Seared Sardines with Lemon-Herb Gremolata
Crispy pan-seared sardines served over a bed of protein-rich white beans and topped with a vibrant, zesty lemon-herb gremolata.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz sardines
0.5 cup cannellini beans
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup fresh parsley
1 clove garlic
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp lemon juice
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup baby arugula
PREPARATION
Prepare the gremolata by mixing the chopped parsley, minced garlic, lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a small bowl.
Pat the sardines dry with a paper towel and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the sardines in the pan and sear for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the skin is golden and crisp.
In a small saucepan over low heat, lightly warm the cannellini beans with the lemon juice and a splash of water.
Arrange the baby arugula on a plate, top with the warm white beans, and place the seared sardines on top.
Spoon the fresh gremolata over the sardines and serve immediately while the fish is still hot.
