Tips:

  • Pat the cod fillets dry with paper towels. This will help to prevent the fish from steaming instead of baking.
  • Season the cod fillets liberally with salt and pepper. You can also add other seasonings, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
  • Place the cod fillets on a greased baking sheet. You can also use a baking dish if you prefer.
  • Bake the cod fillets at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit) for a short period of time (10-12 minutes). This will help to keep the fish moist and flaky.
