1
Prepare the Asparagus
Wash the asparagus and trim the tough ends. Set aside.
2
Prepare the Walleye Pike
Pat dry the walleye pike fillets with paper towels and season both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

3
Coat the Walleye Pike
In a shallow dish, spread the almond flour. Dredge each seasoned walleye pike fillet in the almond flour, ensuring an even coating on both sides.
4
Cook the Walleye Pike
In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the almond-coated fillets to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
5
Sauté the Asparagus
In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the trimmed asparagus and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until tender-crisp. Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the asparagus while cooking. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

6
Plate the Dish
On a serving platter, arrange the sautéed asparagus alongside the walleye pike fillets. Drizzle any remaining lemon butter from the skillet over the fish and asparagus before serving.
