Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using a dry sherry wine instead of regular cooking wine. If you don't have sherry, white wine or a splash of lemon juice can be a good substitute. Ensure the shrimp are well-drained and chopped finely for easy stuffing. For a gluten-free version, replace the flour with cornstarch or a gluten-free flour blend.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the fillet of sole with a side of steamed vegetables or a light salad to balance the richness of the dish. A scoop of fluffy rice or quinoa pairs beautifully with the sauce.

Yes, you can substitute sole with other mild white fish like flounder or tilapia. Just ensure the fillets are thin enough to roll and stuff easily.
