Method

Preparation

Clean the Sardines

Rinse the fresh sardines under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Make sure to remove any insides if not already cleaned.

Marinate the Sardines

In a bowl, combine the olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper. Coat the sardines evenly with this mixture and let them marinate for about 15 minutes.

Grilling

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F to 400°F).

Grill the Sardines

Place the marinated sardines on the grill. Grill them for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the skin is crispy and the fish is cooked through.

Serve

Remove the sardines from the grill and place them on a serving platter. Squeeze fresh lemon juice over the top and serve immediately.
