Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Sardines

Rinse the fresh sardines under cold running water and pat them dry with paper towels. Make a small incision along the belly of each sardine to help them cook evenly.

2

Marinate the Sardines

In a bowl, mix together olive oil, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the sardines, inside and out. Let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.

3

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are hot and evenly distributed.

4

Grill the Sardines

Place the sardines on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and have nice grill marks.

5

Serve

Remove the sardines from the grill and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
