Comments
Marinade was excellent without the cilantro. The gas grill was on medium high and I cooked the sardines one minute on one side and two on the other. They were tender and superbly moist.Think the marinade would be great with other fish such as trout, halibut etc.
Not Moroccan without the cilantro
