Get hooked on Canadian seafood! We work hard to reel in a variety of quality, Canadian fish and seafood from coast to coast. If you're looking for new protein staples or want to add some variety to your mid-week meals, be sure to catch these fantastic Canadian options.
Halibut
Tangy ginger brightens up this flaky favourite that comes together in 10 minutes. The hardest part about this recipe is waiting for the halibut to marinate - but it's worth it. The perfect mid-week meal that can come together in no time.
Chef's Tip: When cooked properly, halibut should easily flake when tested with a fork.
Haddock
A new spin on the classic fish and chips! Salt and vinegar potato chips add an irresistible crunch and zippiness to this tender white fish. Get the kids involved in meal prep by crunching their own chips and battering their own fillets.
Chef's Tip: A fresh haddock fillet will be firm, translucent, and hold together well.
Cod
Turn up the heat with this spice blend that brings maximum flavour to this Canadian fresh fish staple. The combo of chilli powder, cinnamon, and paprika make this dish shine. Pair with our refreshingly simple orange and yellow pepper salad and you've got your next summer cookout hit.
Chef's Tip: When cooked properly, halibut should easily flake when tested with a fork.
Pickerel
Elevate your BBQ game by serving up these heat-packed pickerel packets. Smoky chipotle and sour lime make for a winning combo when prepared on the grill. The best part is that your chopped veggies and protein are grilled at the same time. Perfect over a rice pilaf or as a taco filling.
Mussels
Flex your seafood skills and awe your guests when you serve up this restaurant- worthy dish at home. Mussels are a delicious shellfish that are easy to prepare. Simply cover and steam in a tomato and white wine broth and they'll open in minutes. Drizzled with your favourite pesto, these molluscs do all the heavy lifting themselves, so you don't have to.
Chef's Tip: Cook until fragrant and mussels open. Discard any that do not open.
Lobster Meat
It doesn't get more Canadian than east-coast lobster prepared with ooey-gooey sharp Canadian cheddar. Juicy lobster chunks up the ante on this crowd-pleasing comfort food. Serve right out of the oven in a baking dish or in individual ramekins to impress any guest.
Chef's Tip: Use Compliments Canadian Cheddar for best results.
Lobster Tails
Fancy feasts don't have to be difficult to prepare, and it doesn't get more exquisite than these grilled lobster tails. An easy garlic aioli adds to the richness of this decadent shellfish. The best part? The whole dish can be prepared and served in less than 20 minutes.
Chef's Tip: Serve with lemon butter for added zest.
