Cooking Fish: the Basics
- Place fish in a single layer in a greased nonmetal baking dish. For fillets, tuck under any thin edges. Brush fish with melted butter, then season.
- Cover with heavy clear plastic wrap. Vent wrap by leaving one corner of dish unsealed. Micro-cook on 100 percent power (high) until done. Allow 3 to 5 minutes for 1/2-pound fillets (1/2 inch thick), 5 to 7 minutes for 1-pound fillets (1/2 inch thick), and 7 to 9 minutes for 1-pound steaks (3/4 to 1 inch thick). For fillets, rotate the dish a half-turn after 3 minutes. For steaks, turn them over and rearrange them after 4 minutes.
