fillet
Strip of meat
Fillet (rhyming with decay) most often refers to food, especially fish cut in thin strips (salmon fillet, tilapia fillet, cod fillet, beef fillet).
To fillet a fish is to remove its bones.
Other uses of fillet (rhyming with skillet) are mainly older or technical and specific to particular fields.
