Add sliced onions and carrots, cooking until softened, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Add white wine vinegar, water, bay leaves, black peppercorns, paprika, cayenne pepper, and thyme.

Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes to meld the flavors.

Remove from heat and let the marinade cool to room temperature.

Layer the sardines in a glass jar, pouring the cooled marinade over them.

Seal the jar and refrigerate for at least 24 hours before serving.

Serve chilled, garnished with fresh parsley and lemon slices.
