Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Line a baking tray with silver foil
  • Bring a large saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Pull out a sieve, a grater, a peeler & a medium bowl

Cook the rice

  • Add the rice to the saucepan and boil for 25-30 mins, until cooked, then drain

Prep the salsa

  • Peel the mango, then dice into 1cm chunks, along with the avocado and pepper. Deseed and finely dice the chilli. Roughly chop the coriander. Zest and halve the lime
  • Place all into the medium bowl and mix with the juice and zest from the lime and 1 tsp of oil

Get grilling

  • Turn the grill to high (240C)
  • Drain the sweetcorn. Cut the onion into 6 wedges
  • Place both onto one side of the foil-lined baking tray, drizzle with 1 tsp oil and season with a pinch of salt
  • Grill for 4-6 mins

Grill the sea bream

  • Add the sea bream skin-side up onto the other side of the foil-lined tray. Season with salt and drizzle with 1 tsp oil
  • Return to the oven and grill for 8 mins, until the fish is cooked through and the veg is soft and charred

Finish the rice & plate up

  • Return the cooked rice to the saucepan. When ready, add the onion and corn to the rice pan and mix to combine. Season with salt
  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
  • Share the crispy sea bream between plates, with the onion rice and mango salsa alongside
