CB's Grilled Pacific Sardines

• 2 lb fresh sardines, cleaned and scaled

Sauce

• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 4 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted or clarified
• 2 Tbsp fresh oregano, chopped, or 1/2 Tbsp dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp mustard, ground
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 Tbsp parsley or cilantro, chopped
• 2 tsp coarse salt
• 2 tsp black pepper
• juice from 1/2 lemon

Preheat your grill to medium high. Score the sides of the fish lightly. Spritz the fish with canola oil; grill for about 2 to 3 minutes per side.

For the sauce: Heat oil and the butter in a pan over medium heat; add the oregano and mustard to release their flavors.

Add the garlic, and cook until translucent; reduce heat, and add two tablespoons of the chopped parsley and the salt and pepper. When fish are cooked, arrange on a platter. Squeeze the lemon over the top; then dress the fish with the heated sauce; garnish with the reserved chopped parsley; and serve.
