Instructions
Place orange juice in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; cook until liquid is reduced to 1/4 cup. Cool slightly.
Add the onion, lime juice, chili powder and mustard; cover and process until blended. While processing, gradually add salad dressing in a steady stream; process until blended.
Season fillets with salt and pepper. In a large skillet, cook fillets in oil over medium-high heat for 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Transfer to a greased 15-in. x 10-in. x 1-in. baking pan.
Bake at 400° for 5-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork.
Serve with orange vinaigrette.
Recommended wine: Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc
Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, 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 Hartford Court Russian River Pinot Noir ( half-bottle) with a 4.6 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 22 dollars per bottle.

Aromas of black cherry, allspice, black currant and loam are followed by flavors of wild raspberries, dark berries and a crushed rock minerality. The dense entry is followed by a sweet and juicy mouth feel, supported by acidity, silky tannins and a subtle earthy finish.
