This is a recipe I have tried and tried again and perfected and now it is one of my favorite quick dinner meals nowadays. This works well with canned Sardines, you know the kind you get in supermarkets; Marina and King Cup and what have you. But I used Mackerel this time around because apparently sardines have mercury in it.
