- olive oil2 tbsp

Method
- 1Pat the cod dry and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- 2Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the grapes and cook 3 to 4 minutes until blistered in spots, then transfer to a bowl.
- 3Add the remaining oil to the skillet. Sauté the garlic for 20 seconds, then place the cod in the pan and cook 3 minutes on the first side.
- 4Flip the cod, add lemon juice, orange juice, and lemon zest to the pan, and spoon the liquid over the fish for 2 to 3 minutes until just cooked through.
- 5Scatter the spinach around the fish and cover for 30 to 45 seconds until wilted.
- 6Fold the grapes back into the skillet, sprinkle with dill, and serve immediately with the pan sauce spooned over top.
Tips
- Choose cod pieces of similar thickness so they finish at the same time.
- If the grapes are very tart, add an extra squeeze of orange at the end.
- Serve with rice or crusty bread to catch the citrusy pan juices.
