Fish fingers, also known as fish sticks, are a popular, convenient seafood snack or meal option originating from Western cuisine, particularly the United Kingdom. They typically consist of white fish like cod, haddock, or pollock, coated in breadcrumbs or batter and deep-fried or baked to achieve a crispy texture. Rich in protein, fish fingers provide essential nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids and B vitamins, beneficial for heart and brain health. However, their nutritional value can vary depending on preparation methods; deep-fried versions may be high in saturated fats and calories. Some commercial varieties may also contain additives, preservatives, or higher sodium levels. Choosing baked options, whole-grain coatings, or making homemade versions can enhance their health profile. Fish fingers are versatile and enjoyed by many for their crunchy exterior and tender fish interior, often served with dips, salads, or vegetables for a balanced meal.
