Cooking battered fish in the oven is a healthier alternative to frying, and it’s still possible to achieve a crispy and delicious result. The cooking time for battered fish in the oven will depend on the thickness of the fish fillet and the type of batter used.
As a general rule, you can cook battered fish in the oven at 425 degrees Fahrenheit (218 degrees Celsius) for 15-20 minutes. However, it’s important to keep an eye on the fish as it cooks, as the exact cooking time may vary depending on the type of fish and the thickness of the fillet.
To cook battered fish in the oven, follow these steps:
- Place the battered fish fillets on the baking sheet, leaving some space between each fillet.
- Bake the fish in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the batter is crispy and the fish is cooked through.
Note: If your fish fillets are thicker, you may need to increase the cooking time slightly to ensure that they are cooked all the way through. You can also use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the fish to ensure that it has reached a safe temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius)
