Start by washing and gutting the anchovies thoroughly, then mix them with salt and pepper to enhance their natural flavors. Coat the anchovies in flour, ensuring an even layer, and shake off any excess. Arrange the fish on a parchment-lined baking tray with their tails touching each other to create a beautiful presentation.

Brushed with a little olive oil, the anchovies are then baked in a preheated oven at 180 degrees Celsius (355 degrees Fahrenheit) for 20 minutes until they are crispy and golden brown. This baking method ensures the anchovies are cooked evenly, preserving their delicate texture and rich taste. Serve these delicious baked anchovies as an appetizer, snack, or main dish, and enjoy a healthy, protein-packed meal that’s both easy to prepare and full of authentic Mediterranean flavor.
