Pro Tips

Here are cooking tips, to help you make best baked cod fish ever!

– Don’t overcook the fish! This is the advice that I give to people, no matter what kind of fish they are cooking. When you overcook fish, it doesn’t taste great and it is tough. Don’t overcook it by using the Meat Thermometer. You want the baked cod temperature to be at least 145F

– How do you know that cod is done? This is the question that I get very often. Make sure to measure the baked cod temp with the Meat Thermometer, to be at least 145F.

– There are so many different variations on this recipe — use Cajun spice mix for something different, and see a section above for all of our different spice mix recommendations.

– To make this easy cod fish recipe non-dairy, use olive oil instead of melted butter.

– Do you like more lemon juice and more garlic? You can increase the amounts of them for more flavor.
