Ingredients
Instructions

- Stir in bread crumbs, dill weed, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
- Spoon the shrimp mixture onto the center of each fillet and roll up, securing with toothpicks.
- In a cleaned skillet over high heat, bring the wine, water, and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer the fillets for 12 to 15 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, remove the fillets to a warm platter.
- Remove toothpicks before serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider adding minced garlic when sautéing the shrimp. If you don't have sole, any mild white fish fillet works well as a substitute. To add a bit of crunch, you could mix in some finely chopped celery into the shrimp mixture. Keep an eye on cooking times, as different fillets may require slight adjustments.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the shrimp stuffed roll-ups with a side of garlic mashed potatoes or a fresh green salad to balance the richness. A glass of dry white wine complements the dish beautifully. For a more substantial meal, consider pairing with Potato Salad Stack-Up for a delightful seafood experience.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat, place the roll-ups in a baking dish, cover with foil, and warm them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 15 minutes, until heated through. Avoid microwaving to keep the texture intact.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I prepare the stuffed roll-ups in advance?
Yes, you can assemble the roll-ups ahead of time, cover them, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours before cooking. Just remember to adjust the cooking time if they go into the skillet straight from the fridge.
What can I use instead of cornstarch?
If you don't have cornstarch, you can substitute it with an equal amount of all-purpose flour. However, note that the sauce may be slightly less glossy. Alternatively, arrowroot powder works well for a gluten-free option.
Is it possible to use frozen shrimp?
Absolutely! Thaw the shrimp completely before cooking. Just be sure to pat them dry to avoid excess moisture in the stuffing. Frozen shrimp can be just as flavorful when properly prepared.
