Instructions

Step 1

Slice the shallot and wash the spinach. Prepare the lentils according to the pack instructions and drain and slice the olives.

Step 2

Take the cod fillets out of the fridge and remove all packaging. Season on both sides with a little salt to keep moist during cooking.

Step 3

Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add the shallot and a pinch of salt and cook gently for 3-4 minutes.

Step 4

Tip in the spinach and stir for a minute until just wilted.

Step 5

Add the lentils with a splash of water. Stir, breaking up any clumps, until heated through.

Step 6

Stir in the olives and divide between plates.

Step 7

Wipe out the pan and return it to a medium-high heat with the remaining oil.

Step 8

Add the fish and cook for 3 minutes on each side, carefully turning with a spatula.

Step 9

Once the fish is cooked through, opaque and flakes easily with a fork, serve on top of the lentils with lemon wedges and a little black pepper if liked.
