Description

This pecan-crusted walleye recipe is quick and easy. The light crust on this delicate fish doesn't diminish the taste of the fish.

Ingredients

• 1 large egg

• 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

• 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

• 1/4 teaspoon ground paprika

• 1 pinch cayenne pepper

• 1 pinch salt

• 1 cup ground pecan meal

• 4 (4 ounce) fillets walleye

• 1 tablespoon butter

• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Directions

1 Beat egg, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt in a bowl until evenly mixed. Spread pecan meal into a shallow dish.

2 Dip walleye fillets into egg mixture, then press into pecan meal to evenly coat.

3 Heat butter and vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place walleye fillets into the hot skillet. Cook until golden brown on both sides and the fish flakes easily with a fork, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
