Cooking StepsHow to cook New Orleans-Style Grilled Sardines step by step
-
Step 1Clean the sardines: remove gills, innards, and scales. Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
-
Step 2Make a few diagonal cuts on both sides of each fish to help the marinade penetrate. Add 2 tsp cooking wine and 35g New Orleans seasoning blend. Rub and pat the seasoning evenly over the fish. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for at least 2 hours — the longer, the more flavorful.
-
Step 3Once marinated, place the fish in an air fryer at 200°C (400°F) for 20 minutes. (Note: air fryer wattages vary, so adjust timing as needed.)
-
Step 4After 10 minutes, flip the fish to cook the other side.
-
Step 5Cook until both sides are golden brown.
-
Step 6Simple to make — even a kitchen beginner can nail it. Delicious and satisfying!
