fatty fish
Omega-rich seafood type
Fatty fish are species with high oil content in their flesh, as opposed to lean white fish.
Salmon, mackerel, sardines, and herring are typical examples.
The term appears frequently in nutrition contexts because these fish are rich in omega-3 fatty acids: Doctors recommend eating fatty fish twice a week.
