POACHED SALMON IN ORANGE SAUCE

from Hee Haw's The Hager Twins, Jim and Jon

Recipe

Ingredients:	2 cups orange juice 2 1/2 lb salmon filets (skin removed) 1 red onion, sliced

Directions:	1. Place fish in a frying pan. Pour orange juice over fish until it covers half the thickness of the filets. 2. Place one slice (about 1/8 of an inch) of red onion on top of each serving of fish. 3. Cook over medium heat, covered, until flaky (will depend upon thickness of fish) about 5-10 minutes per inch of thickness. 4. Remove fish to a warm plate, and reduce orange sauce by simmering until it becomes thick. Watch so it doesn't burn. Pour over fish and serve! WINE SUGGESTIONS: Our "wine guy", Ben Payne, makes his first appearance on Celebrity Kitchen. We have found that more and more of our viewers are interested in learning about wine and how to pair it with food. Ben is the guy to help! He travels the world tasting all the best wine, and he knows how to find affordable, scrumptious wines. Ben offers three choices (each around $15) that go beautifully with this salmon recipe: 1) Pierre Sparr, Alsace Reisling - 2000 2) Olivier Leflaive, Bourgogne, Les Setilles - 2002 3) Sebastiani, Pinot Noir, Sonoma Coast - 2002
