Fish and chips crossed the Atlantic from Britain and became a beloved American staple, especially along coastal towns. A typical portion clocks in at 220 kcal per 100g, with 12g of protein from the white fish fillet — usually cod or haddock — battered and deep-fried until golden. The crunchy coating and thick-cut fries contribute 14g of carbs and 13g of fat. You'll get selenium (20mcg) and vitamin B12 (1.2mcg) from the fish, supporting thyroid health and nerve function. For a lighter take, try oven-baked fish with sweet potato fries. A squeeze of lemon and a side of tartar sauce are non-negotiable.
