Fish Said Fred, a farmed fish brand created a couple of years ago by none other than New England Seafood International, is launching a brand new range of responsible sourced fish fillets that are designed to be quickly and easily prepared in an oven.
This new range of fish fillets comprises three different versions, namely sea bass fillets with creamy pesto crumb, cheesy smoked haddock and cod kyiv. Available in Tesco supermarkets in the U.K., these oven-ready fish fillets set about showing that healthy eating, delicious flavors and sustainability needn't be mutually exclusive. What's more, the price point of approximately $7.5 per meal is designed to be accessible.
"This new launch continues Fish Said Fred’s mission to help people fall in love with tasty, healthy and responsibly sourced fish, whilst maintaining our positioning of being accessible to UK families," said Lisa Cowell, head of brand at New England Seafood.
