Method

Toast the nuts or seeds in a dry frying pan over a medium-high heat for 1 min or until golden. Transfer to a small bowl.
Brush both sides of the bread with the oil and add to the pan, in batches if needed, cooking for 1-2 mins on each side until golden and crunchy. Divide between two plates.
Tip the sardines into a bowl and mash lightly with a fork. Stir in half the parsley and the lemon juice. Spoon over the toasts, drizzle with the pesto and scatter over the nuts and lemon zest. Scatter with the remaining parsley to serve.
