Sardines And Pineapple Sandwich Toast Recipes

SPINACH AND SARDINE SANDWICH

Whenever I fly, I like to go armed with lunch, as the food in airports tends to be both appalling and expensive. Lately I've hitting the road with sandwiches that combine produce with canned fish, like sardines, herring, trout or smoked salmon - all of them high in omega-3 fatty acids, packed with protein and delicious. In some of this week's sandwiches, I used small whole-wheat English muffins that were lightly toasted. The muffins won't fall apart, even with a juicy filling like Greek salad, and I like the size. This is inspired by the classic Mediterranean combination of sardines and spinach. I like to use lightly smoked sardines in olive oil for it.

Steps:

Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat, and add the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the spinach. Turn up the heat, and wilt the spinach in the water left on the leaves after washing. Season with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat. Drain and press out excess water.
Lightly toast the English muffin. Spread a little mustard if desired over the bottom half and top with the spinach. Lay the sardine fillets over the spinach, and douse with a little lemon juice. If you have a nice ripe in season tomato, lay over the sardines. Spread the top half of the English muffin with mayonnaise, and top the sandwich. Press down and cut in half, or wrap and refrigerate until ready to eat.

Ingredients

2 teaspoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small garlic clove, minced
2 ounces baby spinach 2 cups tightly packed, rinsed
Salt
freshly ground pepper
1 small (3 1/2-inch) whole-wheat English muffin, lightly toasted
Dijon mustard (optional)
2 canned sardines, preferably lightly smoked in olive oil about 2 ounces, filleted
1 small tomato, sliced optional
Lemon juice
About 1 teaspoon mayonnaise

SARDINE TOASTS WITH TOMATO AND SWEET ONION

A classic pantry meal, sardine toasts are just the thing to eat when you're starving and there's nothing in the house for dinner. If you don't have tomatoes, just leave them out. With their saline flavor and buttery texture, all sardines need is some good bread and a little crunchy onion to set them off.

Sardine Toasts With Tomato and Sweet Onion image

Steps:

Toast the bread under a broiler (on both sides) or in the toaster.
While the toast is still warm, immediately rub it (aggressively!) with the cut side of the garlic clove, then spread toast generously with butter. Top butter with tomato slices and lightly salt them.
Top tomatoes with sardines and then onion slices. Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then season with more salt and pepper. Garnish with basil if you like and serve immediately.

Ingredients

4 thick slices crusty sourdough bread
1 garlic clove, halved
Softened butter, as needed
1 large ripe tomato, thinly sliced
1 can sardines (6 to 7 ounces), deboned if you like
1/4 small sweet or red onion, thinly sliced
Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
Fresh lemon juice, to taste
Flaky sea salt
Coarsely ground black pepper
Fresh basil leaves, torn (optional)
