Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the mustard with the honey and hot sauce.
Spread the mixture on both sides of the salmon chops, arrange them in a single layer on a large dish and refrigerate for at least 10 minutes and up to 30 minutes.
On a large rimmed baking sheet, drizzle the asparagus with the olive oil, rolling the spears to coat. Season with salt and pepper and roast for 4 minutes, or until crisp-tender.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the miso paste with the lime juice.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and brush the asparagus generously with the paste. Return to the oven and roast for 3 minutes, or until tender and glazed. Keep warm.
Preheat the broiler. Using a spatula, scrape most of the marinade off the salmon and arrange the chops in a layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Broil the salmon on 1 side only for 3 minutes, or until well browned; rotate the baking sheet for even cooking.
Transfer the salmon and asparagus to plates and serve at once.
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. The 7Cellars Elway's Reserve Chardonnay with a 4.9 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 28 dollars per bottle.
