I heard that the general rule is 10 minutes per inch of thickness of the fish. So for a half inch thick fillet of fish, 5 minutes (that's total, not per side). But you're not supposed to round up or down, so if the fish is 3/4 of an inch thick, you cook it for 7 1/2 minutes, not seven, not eight.

It depends on the fish and the thickness, but generally, you want to cook the fish until it flakes easily.

How long do you bake cod and what temperature?

No matter how you decide to prepare your fish by poaching, broiling, grilling, stewing, etc. -- make sure not to overcook it. Think 8-10 minutes per inch of thickness, i.e. if you have 2 pieces of 1-1/2 inch thickness and weighing about 16-20 ounces, do not cook it for any more than 20-30 minutes. Your oven should be set no high than 350 F or 160 C. Grilled cod fish is done once it starts to flake.
