We normally just put packed-in-oil sardines onto toast (a good whole wheat of course -- the point is to have nice flavor) and eat like that with bites of fresh serranos. But addition of a little lemon or onion seems like a nice thing. Hmmm, fresh serranos eaten out-of-hand pretty much taste great with everything, don't they?
