Mango Habanero Shrimp make weeknight meals more special. They feature plump shrimp in a crisp, golden coating with hints of sweet, fruity mango and a bold kick of heat. Mango Habanero Shrimp are perfect with rice and veggies, tucked into a taco, or enjoyed with your favorite dipping sauce. Mango Habanero Shrimp cook quickly in the air fryer or oven and offer the perfect opportunity to bring a fiery twist to your go-to protein, transforming everyday dinners into exciting culinary adventures.  

Chicken Fried Wild Alaska Sole Tenders invite customers to enjoy strips of tender, flaky, Wild Alaska Sole encrusted in a golden, Southern style crust, ready for your favorite dips. This North meets South creation delivers comfort food with a coastal twist. Wild Alaska Sole is coated in a familiar, crunchy breading system, making it easier than ever for your guests to try seafood.
