Pan-Seared Sardines with Lemon-Herb Gremolata
Pan-seared sardines served over fluffy quinoa and topped with a zesty lemon-herb gremolata that adds a bright, citrusy crunch to every bite.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Fresh sardines
0.25 cup Cooked quinoa
0.5 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.25 cup Fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 medium Garlic clove
1 medium Lemon
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 cup Baby arugula
PREPARATION
Finely chop the fresh parsley and mince the garlic clove to prepare the gremolata base.
In a small bowl, combine the chopped parsley, minced garlic, lemon zest, and 1 teaspoon of the olive oil.
Season the cleaned sardines evenly with sea salt and black pepper on both sides.
Heat the remaining 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Sear the sardines for 2 to 3 minutes per side until the skin is golden and crisp.
Place the baby arugula on a plate and top with the warmed, fluffy cooked quinoa.
Arrange the seared sardines over the quinoa and spoon the fresh gremolata over the fish.
Finish the dish with a bright squeeze of fresh lemon juice before serving.
