Very nice! I used tilapia instead of trout, but otherwise followed the recipe closely. I'd never made a sauce with vermouth before, and it turned out really tasty. It seemed like there wasn't enough sauce when I finished cooking it, but it's very potent and a little bit goes a long way. Next time, I don't think I'll add the parsley to the pan until after I'm done reducing the sauce, so that it keeps its bright color. Also, I might try using masa harina instead of cornmeal to coat the fish, because the texture would be a little finer. Thanks for posting such a nice recipe...I'm sure I'll be making it again!
