Method

1. Preheat the oven to 190°C. Clean the sardines by removing the head and spine, opening them like a book.
2. In a bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with finely chopped garlic and plenty of parsley.
3. Grease a baking dish with half the olive oil and arrange the sardines in a single layer.
4. Top the sardines with the halved cherry tomatoes.
5. Sprinkle the aromatic breadcrumb mixture evenly over the fish.
6. Drizzle with the remaining olive oil.
7. Bake for 10-12 minutes until the topping is crispy and the fish is cooked through.

Tips

• Fresh sardines are high in Omega-3; if you can't find them, cleaned anchovies work perfectly too.
• Serve with a fresh green salad for a complete and light Mediterranean lunch.
