fish nuggets

Fried ocean bites

Fish nuggets are bite-sized pieces of fish, typically white fish like cod or pollock, that are breaded or battered and fried or baked.

They're the seafood equivalent of chicken nuggets—processed, kid-friendly, and often found in school cafeterias or frozen food aisles: The kids wanted fish nuggets with tartar sauce.
