Bream with Herb Oil Main course for 2

  • Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • For the salsa:
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 1 red pepper, de-seeded and diced
  • 3 plum tomatoes, diced
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  1. Preheat a large frying pan and add two tablespoons of olive oil.  Add the sea bream and fry for 3-4 minutes on each side.
