Bake at 400° for 10-15 minutes or until fish flakes easily with a fork, basting frequently with remaining syrup mixture.
In a large skillet, saute onions in butter until tender.
Add spinach and cooked rice; saute 2 minutes longer. Stir in dressing; heat through.
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 McBride Sisters Central Coast Chardonnay with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 24 dollars per bottle.
McBride Sisters Central Coast Chardonnay
This Central Coast Chardonnay is elegant and vivacious. The fruit was sustainably grown in Edna Valley and Monterey County with flavors that span white peach, pear, citrus zest, green apple, pineapple, vanilla, oak and with delicate notes of white florals. A portion of the wine was put into new and neutral French oak barrels, while the balance was fermented in stainless steel tanks.
