This pan-fried black cod with a zesty lemon and shallot vinaigrette is a refined yet simple choice for a nutritious dinner. Known for its buttery texture and delicate flavour, black cod pairs beautifully with the sharp, bright notes of sherry vinegar and fresh citrus. The addition of a vibrant herb salad, featuring parsley, basil, and dill, adds a cooling contrast to the warm, flakey fish, making it a wonderful dish for a light summer evening.

As a heart-healthy main course, this recipe is rich in omega-3 fatty acids and relies on high-quality olive oil rather than heavy sauces. It is an excellent option for those seeking a sophisticated meal that is both low in saturated fat and naturally gluten-free. Serve it alongside some steamed new potatoes or a crusty sourdough loaf to soak up the delicious dressing.
