Pan-Seared Sardine with Roasted Vegetables
Pan-seared sardines paired with vibrant roasted zucchini and bell peppers, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon for a crisp and savory finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Fresh sardines
1 cup Zucchini
1 cup Red bell pepper
1.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Lemon juice
1 tsp Dried oregano
1 clove Garlic
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Slice the zucchini into rounds and chop the red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces.
Toss the zucchini and peppers on the baking sheet with 0.5 tsp of olive oil, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Roast the vegetables for 15 to 18 minutes until they are tender and the edges are slightly caramelized.
While the vegetables roast, pat the fresh sardines dry with a paper towel to ensure a good sear.
Heat the remaining 1 tsp of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the minced garlic, sautéing for 30 seconds.
Place the sardines in the skillet and sear for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the skin is golden and crisp.
Arrange the roasted vegetables on a plate and top with the pan-seared sardines.
Drizzle the entire dish with fresh lemon juice immediately before serving.
