Dexterity shown in turning to sardines (10)
I believe the answer is:
adroitness
'dexterity' is the definition.
(thesaurus)
'turning to sardines' is the wordplay.
'turning' indicates anagramming the letters.
'to'+'sardines'='tosardines'
'tosardines' anagrammed gives 'ADROITNESS'.
'shown in' acts as a link.
(Other definitions for adroitness that I've seen before include "finesse" , "Skill" .)
