Barbecued Sardines Recipe

This barbecued sardine recipe is a taste of a sunny beach holiday. Next, to enhance the flavor of your sardines, drizzle them with a little olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice. Finally, cook them on both sides. You can serve them as an appetizer or starter with slices of fresh bread and butter. They're delicious!
