Instructions

Remove the ginger slices, and discard.
Meanwhile, combine flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Then dredge salmon in flour mixture.
Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, sear the salmon for 4 minutes or until deeply golden.
Brush both sides of the fish with the warmed glaze.
Place the salmon, seared side up, on a baking sheet that's lined with foil and lightly coated with cooking spray.
Finish cooking the salmon in a preheated 425 oven 4 minutes or until heated through and opaque in the middle.
Garnish with green onions.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc are great choices 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 Hahn Winery Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 17 dollars per bottle.
