Heat enough oil to generously coat the bottom of a wide, heavy skillet over medium heat until rippling. While the oil is heating, season the cod fillets generously with salt and pepper and roll them in the flour to coat on all sides. Tap off any excess flour and lay the cod in the oil. Cook, turning the fillets once, until they are golden brown and barely opaque in the center. The clams will open while the cod is cooking; turn off the heat and let them stand until you need them. Discard any clams that dont open.

Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir are great choices for Fish. 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 Mark West Pinot Grigio with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 13 dollars per bottle.
