Frozen fish sticks

Frozen fish sticks are products made from white fish fillets, generally hake, pollock, or similar fish, which have been breaded and frozen for preservation and easy preparation. This ingredient is very popular in fast food and children's dishes due to its mild flavor, crunchy texture, and quick cooking time.

Their origin dates back to processing and preservation techniques that emerged in countries with fishing traditions, especially in Europe and North America, where the use of fish for quick and practical meals became common.

Regarding their properties, fish sticks are an important source of protein and omega-3 fatty acids, although since they are generally breaded and fried, their fat content can be higher than that of fresh fish. For this reason, they are a recommendable option for including fish in the diet on an occasional and quick basis.

In different Spanish-speaking countries, fish sticks are also known as breaded fish fillets, fish fingers, fish medallions, or simply frozen breaded fish. In some places, more local terms are used, such as fish strips or fish batons.
