    Bream with new potatoes, petits pois, mint & capers

    • Gluten Free
    • Preparation time: 10 minutes
    • Cooking time: 10 minutes to 15 minutes
    • Total time: 20 minutes to 25 minutes 25 minutes

    Serves: 2

    Ingredients

    225g baby new potatoes, quartered
    1 tsp rapeseed oil
    210g pack 2 sea bream fillets with rocket pesto butter
    1 clove garlic, crushed
    160g frozen petits pois, defrosted
    1 unwaxed lemon, zested and half juiced
    2 tsp nonpareille capers in brine, drained
    2 sprigs mint, leaves shredded, plus a few extra whole leaves 

    Method

    1. Boil the potatoes in salted water for 10 minutes, or until just tender. With 5 minutes to go, put the oil in a nonstick frying pan, and set over a high heat. Season the fish, then fry on the skin side for 3 minutes, until golden underneath and the flesh is white almost all the way to the top.

    2. Turn the fish over. Add 1 pat of the pesto butter to the pan (save the other to fry with a different recipe), along with the garlic and the petits pois. Cook for 2-3 minutes until the peas are just tender and the fish is opaque and cooked through, then take from the heat. Drain the potatoes.

    3. Add the lemon zest, juice, capers and shredded mint to the fish pan, then give it a shake to let everything mingle. Serve the fish on top of the potatoes, with the peas and juices spooned over and a few mint leaves to finish.
