About Amberjack

Amberjack is a common name used for several related marine fish, so the name alone does not establish a single species or market form. Amberjack is sold as fresh or frozen fish, often as fillets or steaks, and can be grilled, baked, or otherwise cooked. Raw flesh is typically firm and pale, though appearance and texture vary with species and cut.

The flavour is generally mild to moderately rich, but can differ among fish and handling conditions. Nutrition comparisons should identify the species and cut and distinguish raw from cooked fish, since these factors and preparation affect the measured sample.
