Salmon Braised in Pinot Noir

After a week of mediocre cruise food, I was really ready for a homecooked meal. I picked up some (previously frozen) king salmon at Whole Foods - fish sounded good. This dish was easy to make, and the sauce was nice with the potatoes. It didn't really wow me - or Larry or Jay, either. I think I like salmon seared better, so it gets that crispy crust. I like my regular wilted spinach better too - just garlic and oilve oil. These are my favorite mashed potatoes lately - heavy on the buttermilk, light on the butter.
