Sardines pair wonderfully with bright, fresh flavors. I love using lemon zest, garlic, fresh herbs like parsley and dill, and a touch of chili for heat.
While fresh sardines are milder than anchovies, they are still briny and oceanic in flavor. To add layered flavor, use aromatic ingredients, like garlic and fresh herbs.
For a more Mediterranean vibe, try adding capers, olives, or a splash of white wine. The splash of white wine will help balance all the brackishness.
A drizzle of good-quality olive oil and a sprinkle of sea salt can also go a long way.
