How thick? Do I flip at all?

You don't really need to flip it. You're broiling/roasting it more than cooking it. I'd coat it with lemon and olive oil if you're going to do it at 400 for 12-15 minutes. You can use that juice after it's done as well.

Thickness won't matter a lot. Fish heats fairly evenly while in oven.

Other guy is saying 285, so that might be different.

edit - If you overcook it, you overcook it. Just douse it in something before you eat it. It's not an irrevocable mistake. It isn't wrecked per se, and next time you'll have a better feel. Cod is cheap, so a good fish to learn on.

No flipping needed. And this is for your general 1-2inch thick cod.

I've tried higher temps, but 285 to 300 almost always yields a more tender result (for salmon, too).

It's done when it flakes with a fork.
