Pollock is a flaky fish with a mild but delicious flavor that thrives in cold waters. That is why it’s a great seasonal fish for when the weather turns chilly. It’s a versatile dish that can be turned into any number of amazing, healthy dishes. Whether you’re cooking for a restaurant, healthcare facility, or a school cafeteria, it’s important to have nutritious dishes available.

Pollock Street Tacos
Whether you run a food truck or want a fun, fresh meal to serve at lunch, wild Alaska pollock street tacos are a crowd-pleaser. The spicy jalapeños will quickly warm anyone up on a cold winter’s day. Don’t worry about too much heat; the avocado and cotija cheese will mellow it out. Meanwhile, lime, cabbage, and cilantro provide the freshness people are craving during winter.
For the main ingredient, get breaded pollock fillets. You can bake or air fry them easily so the fish is hot and ready to go for every order. You can deep fry them, too. However, while that might be quick, air frying cuts the calories down between 70-80% compared to deep frying. Baking or air frying also allows the flavor of the fish to shine, too. This is important to truly appreciate a mild fish like pollock.
Pollock Power Grain Bowl
Power grain bowls make an incredibly healthy meal whether it’s for lunch or dinner. For example, the pollock power grain bowl combines pollock, quinoa, broccoli, fresh greens, and avocado. They’re great to serve at restaurants, as they’re hearty, simple, customizable, no-fuss dishes.
For this dish, you’ll want to have lots of fresh pollock on hand. Once you’ve filleted the pollock and removed the skin, you can season it as you like so the flavor is enhanced. You’ll want to pan-sear the fillet on one side before transferring the whole pan into the oven to bake it. This will give you nice, flaky fish to put on top of your power bowls.
