Can I use frozen cod for this recipe?

Absolutely, Just thaw it completely in the fridge overnight first. Pat it super dry with paper towels - frozen fish tends to be extra watery, and we want that beautiful sear, not a steamed mess.

Is the white wine really necessary?

Nope, It adds lovely depth, but the recipe works perfectly without it. Try subbing with a splash of chicken broth or even just a tablespoon of water if you're avoiding alcohol. The lemon and dill still shine bright.

My fish stuck to the pan - help!

Been there, Make sure your pan is properly oiled and hot before adding the fish. If your skillet isn't well-seasoned, that parchment paper trick I mentioned earlier is a lifesaver. And remember - let the fish cook undisturbed until it naturally releases.

Can I prep this ahead?

You bet, Chop the dill, slice the lemons, and mince the garlic up to a day in advance. Just keep everything in separate containers in the fridge. The actual cooking? Best done fresh - this dish comes together so fast anyway.
