Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sardines

    Clean and gut the sardines, if not already done. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Drizzle olive oil over the sardines and season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 2

    Make the Tomato Mixture

    In a bowl, combine diced tomatoes, sliced olives, capers, and verjus. Mix well and set aside to let the flavors meld.

  3. 3

    Grill the Sardines

    Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the sardines on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is cooked through and has nice grill marks.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Arrange the grilled sardines on a serving platter and top with the tomato mixture. Drizzle any remaining olive oil over the top and serve immediately.
