One Pan Mediterranean Cod is a quick, easy weeknight meal! Keep it low carb or serve on a bed of rice. Either way, it’s delicious!
I love the simplicity of Mediterranean cooking. It’s not fussy. It’s all about using the fresh ingredients you have in your kitchen. I’ve made several versions of this dish, changing ingredients here and there, depending on what I have on hand in the refrigerator. Any greens will work – kale, spinach, Swiss chard. Don’t have cod? Use flounder, tilapia, or haddock. It’s all about working with what you have available.
Another great addition would be a drizzle of Easy Basil Oil! This recipe is meant to be flexible.

How to Make One Pan Mediterranean Cod
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic, baby greens and grape tomatoes. Sauté for 1 minute and push out to the sides.
Add the cod and season with salt, pepper, dill, and red pepper flakes. Sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes until the greens start to wilt and the tomatoes start to soften.
Add the lemon juice, wine, butter, and capers. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer for 3-5 minutes, checking periodically.
It is finished when the fish is white and flakes easily.
Serve with the pan juices and a wedge of lemon. Enjoy!
