how long to bake cod at 350

The baking time for cod at 350°F (175°C) depends on the thickness of the fish and the desired level of doneness. Here are some general guidelines:

* Thin cod fillets (less than 1 inch thick): 8-12 minutes
* Medium-thick cod fillets (1-1.5 inches thick): 12-15 minutes
* Thick cod fillets (1.5-2 inches thick): 15-18 minutes
* Extra-thick cod fillets (over 2 inches thick): 18-20 minutes

It’s also important to check the internal temperature of the fish to ensure it reaches a safe minimum internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). You can use a food thermometer to check the internal temperature.

Additionally, you can check for doneness by:

* Flaking the fish with a fork: If it flakes easily, it’s done.
* Checking the color: Cooked cod should be opaque and flake easily.
* Checking the texture: Cooked cod should be firm to the touch.

Remember to preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil before baking the cod. You can also season the cod with your favorite herbs and spices before baking.
