Sand dabs are a local Monterey Bay commodity and actually a species of flounder! Lucky for us, this fish is easy to debone and cook with. Their taste is delicate and sweet, and the skin can be left on. Bread fillets and enjoy in a sandwich, or grill them with some veggies!

Sand dabs are a true local treasure from Monterey Bay, part of the flounder family. They're a great choice for home cooking due to their easy-to-handle fillets and mild, sweet flavor. You'll find their texture tender, making them a hit with both kids and adults alike. One of the best things about sand dabs is that you can leave the skin on, which not only saves time but also adds a bit of extra flavor when cooking. For a quick and satisfying meal, try coating the fillets in breadcrumbs and give them a pan-fry. They get a lovely crisp crust that works wonderfully in a sandwich. If you're up for grilling, sand dabs pair perfectly with seasonal veggies. They cook fast, so keep an eye on them, and just a touch of lemon juice or a sprinkle of fresh herbs will really make the flavors pop. Whether you're a seasoned cook or just trying your hand at new recipes, sand dabs are a fantastic option. They're not only easy to prepare, but they also bring a bit of our beautiful local sea directly to your kitchen table.
