Best Ways to Cook Fish
Hey, everyone. Chef Ben here from Giant Eagle and today I’m here to share with you some of my favorite cooking
techniques for fresh fish fillets. Now here at Giant Eagle, we have an ocean’s bounty
of different seafood for you to choose from. And there’s a proper cooking technique for
each one of those different types of fish. First, let’s talk about firmer fish
such as swordfish, sea bass and tuna. These fish are great for grilling. It’s important to cook your fish thoroughly, so use a meat thermometer
to cook fish to 145 degrees. The next type of fish would
be your salmon or halibut. These fish are great for
pan-searing or, my favorite, baking. The third type of fish would
be your mild flaky fish. This would be flounder, tilapia and cod. I prefer to cook these fish in a saute pan. One tip is to not overcrowd your pan. Make sure you use one piece for a small pan or maybe two or three pieces for a larger pan. Now that I’ve shared my three
favorite ways to cook fish, check out Giant Eagle’s Seafood Department for our wide variety of fish and seafood And for more recipe ideas and
