About Catfish fillet
Catfish fillet is a mild-flavored, versatile fish commonly used in Southern U.S. cuisine, as well as in African and Southeast Asian dishes. Known for its tender, flaky texture, it’s a popular choice for frying, grilling, or baking. A 3.5-ounce serving of catfish provides high-quality protein, omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, along with essential nutrients like vitamin B12, phosphorus, and selenium. Low in calories and saturated fats, it supports heart health and muscle maintenance. However, preparation methods like deep-frying can significantly increase its fat and calorie content, so grilling or baking is a healthier alternative. Farm-raised catfish, common in the market, is praised for sustainability but may have a slightly different nutritional profile than wild-caught varieties. Enjoyed as a staple in many traditional dishes, catfish fillet is a nutritious option when incorporated into a balanced diet with mindful cooking techniques.
