serve (please see explanation)
En inglés no se estila decir "on a plate" a menos que se refiera a pasar algo de la olla a una fuente: "transfer to a serving plate". Cuando se dice "serve" se entiende que es "al plato" y no en sandwich.
Yo en este caso diría: "Ideal grilled or boiled, served with a side dish".
Paso el enlace de Delia Smith donde hay miles de recetas (inclusive de sandwiches) y en ninguna especifica que se sirve "on a plate"....

: on its own, significa que se sirve sola... no es lo mismo, se puede servir al plato acompañada con guarnición (a veces vienen en el mismo plato, otras no). pero no es este el sentido de "al plato"

a dish in its own right
ie, as opposed to being part of a sandwich.
The text goes on to explain that it's grilled or boiled and garnished, so it's not on its own
