Fish is found in cuisines in every corner of the world, especially in coastal communities.
It is transported to restaurants across the country so that everyone can enjoy its health benefits and tasty textures.
Yet even when they enjoy eating fish while dining out, people sometimes avoid preparing it at home.
Alaska pollock comes in a variety of forms and cuts that are widely available at supermarkets, so that you can easily prepare it for your family.
One easy option is to bake the fillets.
Prepare a glass pan by greasing the bottom with a bit of butter or drizzle a bit of olive oil on it.
Then, lay out the pieces of Alaska pollock.
In a separate bowl, mix sour cream and parmesan cheese in about equal proportions.
Add a bit of melted butter as well as salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
Cover the fillets with the mixture and bake for about 30 minutes.
If you want to experiment a bit, you can substitute buttermilk for the sour cream or use less cheese.
You can also try gruyere, Swiss, or any of your favorite cheese instead of the parmesan.
Another way to bake fillets is on a baking sheet.
Drizzle it with olive oil and then place the Alaska pollock on top, seasoning the fillets with paprika and pepper.
Then, add sliced onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, and any other of your favorite veggies.
Bake for about thirty minutes.
Just before they are done, add slices of cheddar or American cheese to top off the delicious meal idea.
Alaska pollock is also found in fish stick form in the frozen foods section of a grocery store.
Keeping a box in the freezer is a great way to guarantee you always have a meal idea up your sleeve.
