Braised Salmon with Leeks and Dill requires roughly 20 minutes from start to finish. One portion of this dish contains roughly 35g of protein, 12g of fat, and It works well as a main course. Head to the store and pick up dill, tomato, pepper, and a few other things to make it today. To use up the dry white wine you could follow this main course with the White Wine Frozen Yogurt as a dessert. It is a good option if you're following a gluten free, dairy free, and primal diet.

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc

Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc are my top picks for Salmon. To decide on white or red, you should consider your seasoning and sauces. Chardonnay is a great friend to buttery, creamy dishes, while sauvignon blanc can complement herb or citrus-centric dishes. A light-bodied, low-tannin red such as the pinot noir goes great with broiled or grilled salmon. You could try Antica Chardonnay (Mountain Select). Reviewers quite like it with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 29 dollars per bottle.
