Instructions
Stir together first 10 ingredients in a small bowl. Set aside.
Heat oil in a wide, deep, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper, and cook 4 minutes. Turn fillets over; cook 1 minute.
Spoon 1 tablespoon butter mixture over the top of each fillet; transfer skillet to oven, and bake at 450 for 2 minutes or until fish is just cooked through and opaque in the center.
Add any remaining butter to pan, and let melt, stirring with juices in pan; spoon over fish, and garnish, if desired.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir
Cod works really well with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. 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. One wine you could try is Skyfall Pinot Gris. It has 4.8 out of 5 stars and a bottle costs about 13 dollars.

Pale straw in color with notes of mango, citrus blossom and banana in the nose. On the palate a medley of tropical fruit unfolds into tangerine, mango, grapefruit, and banana flavors. These tropical notes continue throughout the long and lingering finish.
