Flounder is a lean saltwater fish commonly found in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and is prized in seafood dishes worldwide, particularly in Mediterranean, Asian, and North American cuisine. Its mild, slightly sweet flavor and delicate texture make it versatile for grilling, baking, or pan-searing. Flounder is rich in protein, low in fat, and provides essential nutrients like vitamin B12, selenium, and omega-3 fatty acids, which support heart health and brain function. It’s also a good choice for those watching calorie intake, as it is typically low in calories. However, as a bottom-dwelling fish, there’s a slight possibility of trace mercury content, so moderate consumption is recommended, especially for pregnant individuals. Flounder’s light and nutritious profile make it an excellent option for balanced and health-conscious meals.
