Does fish have to cook for a certain amount of time? How do I know when it is done?
The USDA recommends that fish needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees F. However, some say that salmon is overdone at this point. For a medium to medium well cook on your salmon, use the time and temperature indicated, or remove from oven when the salmon reaches an internal temperature of 125-130 degrees F and let it rest for 5 minutes.
