Provided by Guy Fieri Bio & Top Recipes

Time 30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 1/2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup fat-free Greek yogurt
2 tablespoons finely diced pickles
2 tablespoons finely diced pickled sweet red pepper
1 tablespoon minced red onion
1 tablespoon minced brined capers
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
3 dashes hot sauce
Pinch cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 whole large, fresh sardines, cleaned but with head and tail intact
Flaky sea salt
Freshly ground black pepper
8 sprigs fresh thyme
8 sprigs fresh oregano
1 lemon, cut into thin wheels
2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
Extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • For the spicy tartar: Combine the mayonnaise, yogurt, pickles, red pepper, onion, capers, lemon juice, tarragon, chives, hot sauce and cayenne in a mixing bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Stir well, then cover and refrigerate for 15 to 20 minutes to allow flavors to come together.
  • For the sardines: Preheat a grill to high. Rinse the sardines in cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season the cavity of each sardine with salt and pepper, then place a sprig of thyme and oregano inside each along with a few slices of lemon and garlic. Season outside with salt and pepper. Carefully tie the sardines with butcher¿s twine to help keep them closed during grilling. Wipe down the grill grates with a towel dipped in oil to clean and create a non-stick surface. Carefully place sardines across grates and grill for 3 to 4 minutes, until skin blisters and chars around the edges. Using a spatula, carefully turn the sardines and grill for a further 2 to 3 minutes to cook through. When done, remove to a platter and keep warm until ready to serve. Serve the sardines slathered with the Spicy Tartar.

SIMPLE GRILLED SARDINES



Simple Grilled Sardines image

Grilled fresh sardines are often offered on restaurant menus, but it's very easy to make them at home, whether over hot coals or under the broiler. At the fishmonger, look for firm, shiny, glistening specimens. Sardines are a sustainable fish choice and are high in healthy omega-3 fatty acids. Most importantly, they are extremely delicious. For a Mediterranean touch, grill the fish on fig leaves: After cooking the sardines on one side, lay four fig leaves on the grill and place two fish, cooked side up, on top of each leaf to finish cooking. The fig leaves will add a subtle perfume to the sardines (they look beautiful, too), but they are not edible.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 fresh sardines (about 1 1/2 pounds), cleaned and scaled
Salt and pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 medium fennel bulbs, trimmed and very finely sliced
Lemon wedges
2 tablespoons chopped parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Prepare a medium-hot charcoal fire or stovetop grill pan, or light the broiler.
  • Season sardines inside and out with salt and pepper and paint both sides lightly with olive oil.
  • Lay sardines on the grill and cook them on one side for about 2 minutes, until nicely browned. (Sardines rarely stick to the grill.) Carefully flip sardines and cook for about 2 minutes more, until just done.
  • Transfer each portion to individual plates. Put the sliced fennel in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Dress with about 2 tablespoons olive oil and a squeeze of lemon. Place a pile of dressed fennel evenly on each plate. Serve with lemon wedges and a sprinkle of parsley.
