Ingredients

5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 tablespoons minced shallot
1/4 teaspoon finely grated fresh lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 (15- to 19-ounce) can white beans, rinsed and drained
2 smoked-trout fillets (1/2 pounds total), skinned and flaked
