Since the recipe omitted when the shallots were supposed to be added, I added a tablespoon of olive oil to the pan after removing the trout, and cooked until tender, then added the wine. Also, the trout wasn’t quite done when it came out of the oven so I returned it to the pan after the wine reduced, lowered the heat to medium, covered it, and cooked for an additional 5 or so minutes. It was good I’d make it again.
There was no "juice" in the pan after baking. The breadcrumb stuffing was too dry, I added olive oil. Recipe doesn't tell us where the shallots go. In the stuffing? Boiled with the wine and "juice?" Some part of this recipe is missing. I would not recommend.
