Sardines (fish) in the oven
Description
The recipe won't take much time. Preparing anchovies is easy, even for those who don't like cleaning and cooking fish. Moreover, instead of frying them in oil on a skillet, we'll bake the anchovies in the oven. The result will be crispy and flavorful little fish. Tip: instead of breadcrumbs, you can use oat bran—it will also taste delicious. Serve hot.
