What is the best type of fish for baking?

Some types of fish suitable for baking are halibut, Arctic char and sablefish. Any firm, dense fish works well in the oven.

When baking fish, it is always best to bake at a low temperature for a longer amount of time. A thick fish fillet can be baked at 250 degrees Fahrenheit for 40 to 50 minutes to keep the fish soft and moist.

Fish can be paired with a number of different ingredients. Catfish, for example, tastes great when cooked with cayenne pepper, cilantro, curry or oregano. Bluefish can be cooked with chives, lemon, garlic or parsley and flounder with lemon, ginger, cumin or coriander.
