white fish
Mild-flavored seafood
White fish refers broadly to any fish with pale, mild-tasting flesh—cod, haddock, tilapia, halibut, and similar species.
The term distinguishes these from oily fish like salmon or mackerel.
White fish is often recommended as a lean protein source: I'm trying to eat more white fish.
Also spelled as one word: whitefish.
