Alaska Fish Recipes

Every Alaska fish we carry has its own texture and fat content, so the best way to cook it isn't one-size-fits-all. Rich, fatty fish like black cod come alive under a broiler or in a hot pan, where the heat renders the fat without drying it out. Leaner fish like halibut or Pacific cod do better steamed or lightly breaded, so they stay moist instead of turning tough. Here's how to get the most out of each one.

What to Cook with Black Cod

Black cod's natural richness shines with simple treatments — a Japanese-style miso glaze under the broiler, a quick sear in garlic butter, or a gentle steam with soy sauce. The less you fuss with it, the more that buttery flavor comes through.

What to Cook with Sockeye Salmon

Sockeye's firm, deep-red flesh holds up to grilling, crisping the skin in a hot pan, teriyaki glazes, or serving it raw in sashimi and poke bowls. It's also, by far, the fish people search for the most recipe ideas around.

What to Cook with Halibut

Halibut's white, firm, mild-tasting flesh is practically built for a lemon-butter pan sear, foil-packet grilling, or a light ginger-scallion steam that lets its natural sweetness come through.

What to Cook with Pollock

Pollock usually comes pre-breaded, so a quick fry or oven bake gets a family-friendly meal on the table fast. The plain fillets also work well flaked into fish cakes or a light chowder.

What to Cook with Pacific Cod

Pacific cod's lean, flaky texture is a natural for classic fish and chips, a quick soy-sauce steam, or a spicy-and-sour fish soup.
