About Fillet

Fillet, often spelled filet, refers to a high-quality, lean cut of meat or fish known for its tender texture and rich flavor. Commonly associated with beef or fish like salmon or cod, fillet is a versatile ingredient in various cuisines worldwide, including French, American, and Mediterranean. Beef filet, such as filet mignon, is prized for its delicate texture and is often served grilled, seared, or broiled, while fish fillets are a staple in heart-healthy dishes thanks to their high protein and omega-3 fatty acid content. Nutritionally, fillets are an excellent source of protein, essential vitamins, and minerals like iron and selenium. While lean options are beneficial for muscle growth and overall health, preparation methods like heavy frying or the addition of high-fat sauces can increase calorie and fat content, reducing health benefits. Opting for grilled or baked fillet maintains its nutritional value and supports a balanced diet.
