What are some ways to cook seafood?

There are lots of ways to cook seafood. Each recipe will give you step-by-step directions to make the recipe. Seafood can be baked, pan-fried, sautéd, deep-fried, grilled, oven-roasted, and poached. 

How long do you cook fish?

Cooking time for seafood depends on the type of seafood and how thick the seafood is cut. I love the cooking time instructions for all types of seafood in this seafood cooking times article.

What is the best seafood for kids?

Most kids like more mild-flavored fish like cod and tilapia. Salmon is also popular and fun to eat.
