Cod Piccata might be just the main course you are searching for. One portion of this dish contains about 32g of protein, 4g of fat, and a total of 203 calories. This recipe serves 2. A mixture of olive oil, ground cumin, onion, and a handful of other ingredients are all it takes to make this recipe so scrumptious. To use up the ground cumin you could follow this main course with the Moroccan Chocolate Mousse as a dessert. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free, dairy free, and primal diet.

Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are my top picks for Cod. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Esperto Pinot Grigio with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 10 dollars per bottle.
