Fish Preparation

Method

Fish Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Fish

    Rinse the walleye fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

  2. 2

    Season the Fillets

    Sprinkle the fillets with salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Allow the fish to marinate for 15 minutes.

  3. 3

    Heat Olive Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.

Breading

  1. 4

    Prepare the Breading

    In a shallow dish, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.

  2. 5

    Coat the Fish

    Dredge each marinated walleye fillet in the breading mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated on both sides.

Cooking

  1. 6

    Fry the Walleye

    Once the oil is hot, carefully place the breaded walleye fillets in the skillet. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through.

  2. 7

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fried walleye from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot with lemon wedges.
