PAN-ROASTED SALMON WITH CHERRY TOMATOES

Pan-Roasted Salmon with Cherry Tomatoes image

It sounds basic, but the tomato sauce is so awesome. If you have it, use white wine instead of chicken broth. I like to serve my salmon with asparagus-roast it alongside the fish. -Swati Sharan, Horseheads, New York
