How to Make Alton Brown's Sherried Sardine Toast
- In a bowl, combine the sardines, sherry, olive oil, garlic, and thyme. Gently toss to coat the sardines evenly.
- Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, allowing the sardines to marinate in the flavorful mixture.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- While the sardines marinate, toast the bread slices to your desired level of crispness. You can do this in a toaster, oven, or on a stovetop.
- Remove the marinated sardines from the refrigerator. Drain off excess marinade, reserving about 1 tablespoon.
- Spread the reserved marinade evenly over the toasted bread slices.
- Top each bread slice with 2-3 marinated sardines.
- Grate the lemon zest over the sardines.
- Drizzle a small amount of olive oil over each sardine toast.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the sardines are heated through and the toast is slightly golden.
- Serve immediately and garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
