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

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9 / air fryer 190C
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a large bowl & a large non-stick frying pan

Make the chips

  • Leaving the skin on, cut the sweet potatoes into chunky chips. Place onto the lined baking tray. Toss with 2 tsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper
  • Roast for 25-30 mins / air fryer 20-25 mins, until golden

Make the Greek-style salad

  • Thinly slice the cucumber into 1/2cm half-moons. Cut the feta into 1cm cubes. Cut the tomatoes into 2cm wedges. Halve the olives. Thinly slice the peppers and onion
  • Add all to the large bowl. Halve the lemons
  • Add the sumac, oregano, juice from 1 lemon, 1 tsp oil and a pinch salt and pepper to the salad bowl and toss to combine

Cook the sea bream

  • Heat the large frying pan with 2 tsp oil on medium-high heat. Season both sides of the sea bream with salt and pepper. Once hot, add the sea bream, skin-side down, and cook for 4 mins. Flip and cook for a further 5 mins, until cooked through
  • Cook in batches

Plate up

  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
  • Serve the butterflied sea bream on plates, with the Greek-style salad and sweet potato chips alongside. Squeeze over the juice of the remaining lemon to taste
