Sablefish lives up to 5000 feet below the sea. It is highly prized and highly demanded due to its rich delicate texture and buttery flavored flesh. It is, therefore, known as butterfish, especially in Australia.This fish tops this list for being the highest in heart-healthy omega-3. Plus, it is rich in iron, calcium, Copper, and other important healthy minerals.

Consuming a four-ounce serving of butterfish can provide you with 220 calories. For the sake of your health and that of your environment, it is better to opt for the butterfish caught in California, Alaska, or British Columbia. In these places, the fishing practices are said to be more reasonable.

One more additional piece of information to take into consideration is the number of servings of butterfish that you should be given your children at the age of 12 or under. According to EDF, it is enough for this category of people to have no more than two servings a month, and this is because of the moderate mercury content.
