Wild Copper River Sockeye Salmon (6oz)
Wild Caught Copper River Sockeye Salmon Fillet
Approximately 6 oz per fillet
Our wild caught Copper River sockeye salmon fillets are sustainably harvested during their brief, legendary annual run and flash-frozen at peak freshness to capture their extraordinary richness. Copper River salmon is considered among the finest wild salmon in the world. What makes it special is the short, grueling migration up the Copper River in Alaska—fish fight powerful currents and glacial meltwaters, building exceptionally high fat content, vibrant red color, and deep, rich flavor. This creates a buttery, melt-in-your-mouth texture and a more intense, complex taste than most other sockeye or salmon varieties.
We source exclusively from MSC-certified partners who follow strict, responsible practices. The limited seasonal harvest ensures every fillet is of the highest quality and freshness.
Cooking Copper River sockeye has a bold, rich flavor and tender, flaky texture that shines with simple preparation. Grill, pan-sear, bake, broil, poach, or smoke it. Try it with just lemon and herbs, glazed with maple or miso, in salads, or as the star of a summer grill plate. Its high fat content keeps it moist and forgiving—perfect for quick, elegant meals.
Nutrition Copper River sockeye salmon is nutrient-dense and rich in healthy fats. A typical 6 oz fillet provides high-quality protein plus key nutrients, including:
- Omega-3 fatty acids (among the highest levels in salmon for heart and brain health)
- Selenium (powerful antioxidant)
- Vitamin D, potassium, niacin, phosphorus, magnesium, and B vitamins (B6, B12)
A clean, indulgent choice for health-conscious eaters.
