How long does it take to microwave fish?
Chef's answer
Cover and microwave for 4-5 minutes or so for a 1 inch-thick fillet and let sit covered until the rest of your dinner is ready. Comes out perfectly steamed/poached everytime. While the fish is cooking, make a green salad or saute some quick-cooking veggies like snap or snow peas, green beans, or broccoli.
