Preparation
Drain the sardines from their oil, reserving the oil for another use. In a medium bowl, add the sardines and lemon zest and use a fork to crush the sardines into small pieces. Add the lemon juice, butter, and pepper and use the fork to mix together until combined. Season with more pepper if desired and serve with bread.
