Pan-Seared Sardines with Lemon-Herb Gremolata
Pan-seared fresh sardines topped with a zesty lemon-herb gremolata and served over a slice of crisp toasted sourdough.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz fresh sardines
0.25 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup fresh parsley
1 tbsp lemon zest
1 clove garlic
0.5 slice sourdough bread
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
1 cup arugula
PREPARATION
Combine the chopped parsley, lemon zest, and minced garlic in a small bowl to create the gremolata.
Pat the fresh sardines dry with a paper towel and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Carefully place the sardines in the skillet and sear for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the skin is golden and crisp.
While the sardines cook, toast the sourdough bread until lightly browned.
Arrange a bed of fresh arugula on a plate and place the toasted sourdough on top.
Layer the seared sardines over the bread, drizzle with lemon juice, and finish with a generous sprinkle of the gremolata.
