Instructions
To prepare salmon, sprinkle salmon evenly with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper.
Place salmon, skin sides down, on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray.
Bake at 250 for 30 minutes until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork or until desired degree of doneness.
To prepare rice, rinse with cold water; drain.
Combine rice, coconut milk, 1 1/2 cups water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat; stir once. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes until liquid is absorbed.
Let stand 10 minutes; stir in onions.
To prepare bok choy, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add bok choy and ginger; saut 1 minute.
Add sake and 1/4 teaspoon salt; cover and cook 2 minutes or until bok choy wilts. Cover and keep warm.
To prepare sauce, combine juice and remaining ingredients, stirring well with a whisk.
Serve salmon with rice, bok choy, and sauce.
Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc
Salmon works really well with Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Sauvignon Blanc. 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 Tyler Winery Santa Barbara County Chardonnay with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 30 dollars per bottle.

Tyler Winery Santa Barbara County Chardonnay
2015 brought the earliest vintage of the decade so far. After the large 2013 and 2014 vintages and the continued drought, the vines put forth a fraction of the fruit than the previous two years. They were down approximately 30% overall but the result was exceptional quality and deep, powerful wines with great acidity. Citrus, anise, saline, and energetic.
