About Fish fillets

Fish fillets are portions of fish flesh cut away from the backbone, typically with most bones removed. They may have skin on or off, and their colour, firmness, flavour, and fat content depend on the fish species and the cut.

Fillets are sold fresh, frozen, or preserved, and may be cooked in many ways. The generic term does not identify a species or whether the product is trimmed, seasoned, or otherwise processed, so it describes a broad category rather than one uniform ingredient.
