favorite way to cook walleyes

[jwmiller33]

what is your favorite recipe for cooking walleyes? i am looking for a new way to cook some walleyes. anybody have any recipes they are willing to share?

[crappiebuster]

Panko Japanese bread crumbs. Crustys pancake batter. And blue corn meal. And of course beer to a pancake batter consistency. Equal parts then add your spice blend whatever you like. Ground white pepper a lil greek seasoning maybe some parsley flakes and salt etc etc.

Dont forget the peanut oil

Serve with a slice of lemon and enjoy

Krunched up corn flakes and pancake batter are good also. Just experiment. Sometimes we use whatevers in the fishouse.

I like to mix different shore lunch breading together. also a beer added to it can be nice too

[jeffreyd]

i just put some old bay seasoning on them and bake them in the oven on 350 in just a touch of oil. i have used a batter called grandmother i think and it was quite good. also have used frycrisp and that stuff is great but cannot find it in az. found it at the day old bread store in neb.

Crush up your favorite crackers dip in egg then the crushed crackers then drop in the hot peanut oil, cheap quick and easy.

[usmtsrocks]

Mix Shore Lunch and Fryin Magic together half and half. Heat your peanut oil to 375 and cook until golden brown and crispy! I'm getting hungry just thinking about it!

Grilled Tomato Basil Walleye

Grill a few filets in tin foil with garlic and butter and a little lemon juice. While that is grilling, chop up a few tomatoes. Melt a half stick of butter in a frying pan. Add the tomatoes and juices to the butter and cook on medium. Add fresh basil and fresh ground pepper to the sauce. Plate the walleye and spoon the tomato basil sauce over the filets. YUMMY!!!!!!!!!!

[alwaysonthemove]

mix together some cream cheese, basil, minced onion, minced garlic, pepper, and lemon zest. lay walleye fillets on a greased glass dish. spread mixture over fillets. sprinkle lemon juice over them and cook in oven till done.

Best way I know of with out the grease.

I like to cook them on a bed of sliced carrots and onions wrapped in tinfoil. A little oil on the foil to keep the veggies from sticking. Sprinkle a little dill weed and butter buds on top before wrapping them up and grilling them or throw them in the oven on a cookie sheet so they don't leak in your oven.

I've been using Jane's Mixed-Up Salt and Mixed-Up Pepper in plain flower.

[Cicada]

We forgot ingredients to cook fish on a trip and crushed Ranch Doritos, rolled the fillets in them and baked them. It was pretty good.

My favorate way is:

Dip in egg/water wash, coat with seasoned flour, dip in egg wash, coat in panko and deep fry.

This is my second: Grilled Walleye with Pecans

Ingredients:

12 oz walleye fillets

1/4 cup pecans, chopped and toasted

2 tablespoons butter

1 teaspoon fresh chives, chopped

1 teaspoon orange juice

salt and pepper to taste

Preparation:

Combine butter, chives, juice and half the pecans in a small bowl and mix well.

Preheat grill. Take a 12 inch square piece of aluminum foil and cut 2 inch slits

into it every two inches. Spray with a nonstick spray and place on grill.

Put the Walleye Fillets on the foil, sprinkle with salt and pepper,

and grill for 8-12 minutes. The fillets are done when the fish flakes easily with a fork.

one minute before the fish is done top with the pecan butter.

Remove from heat and sprinkle the remaining pecan pieces over top before serving.

A couple of ways but I'll put this one down as it's simple and delicious.

Grilled Walleye Appetizers

Walleye chunked up in 1" cubes

Bacon cut in 5" strips

Cajun or Old Bay Seasoning

toothpicks(soaked in water for 1-3 hours)

Dust you walleye chunks with the seasoning and wrap with bacon. Secure with the toothpick. Grill over hot grill until bacon crisps up.

Enjoy!

I tried using herb Triscuts one time...fantastic. Other tahn that, make a tinfoil pouch with one fillet, potatoes, onions, lemon, olive oil, salt, pepper and a little parsley. Seal and cook on a grill or oven and you have a pretty low mess meal. Works well for shore lunch if you don't want to carry around oil and pots.

[trolloni]

Man all theese sound real good ,right now i m hooked on shore lunch beer batter! good on all fish especially on gills fresh outa the ice!

[White-tips]

Coat fillets in seasoned flour, pan fry in butter on medium-high heat until crispy on both sides. Turn heat to high; once pan is very hot, pour a 50/50 mixture of lemon juice and soy sauce over the fillets. Allow mixture to reduce down until a thick sauce developes.

Remove pan from heat and serve.

[BobT]

Seasoned and broiled or grilled. Served with wild rice and a steamed vegetable medley.

Edit: I almost forgot. Can't forget a good beverage and good company.

[jwmiller33]

white-tips,

the soy sauce method sounds very good! i will have to give it a try next time i get some eyes

[wplatehunter]

We use shore luch and deep fry them, or my wife likes them dipped in eggs with crackers.

[zooks]

Soak some alder planks overnight in water or dry white wine. Arrange the fillets on the planks and cover with the following vinagrette:

1-2 tbls brown mustard

2 tbls fresh chopped tarragon

1 tbls white wine or rice vinegar

3 tbls EV olive oil

pinch or kosher or sea salt and 2-3 grinds of black pepper

(all measurements approximate, but keep vinegar/oil ratio at 1:3 and drizzle oil in slowly while whisking to combine)

Cook uncovered over indirect heat on covered grill or in 425 degree oven for 10-15 min.

I like deep fried walleye just as much as anybody but sometimes a person has to change it up.

Tried this recipe a few weeks ago when the tomatoes were flowing from the garden, found it on My Recipes HSOforum, they had it for Cod but I did it with Walleye. I used Mezzetta's Italian Antipasto Olives instead of the ones they listed in the recipe, also substituted chicken broth for white wine which was just fine but I'd like to try the white wine version next time.

It's an easy recipe that comes together quick and tastes great!!

Serve a one-dish dinner of fish in a Mediterranean-inspired sauce. You'll love the bright punch of flavor from the crushed red pepper--and how easy this dish is to clean up.

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 fillet and about 2/3 cup sauce)

Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 1/2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic

1 cup water

3/4 cup dry white wine

2 tablespoons capers

3/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper

1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes with basil, garlic, and oregano

4 (6-ounce) cod fillets

10 kalamata olives, pitted and chopped

Preparation

Heat olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add garlic; sauté 1 minute or until lightly browned. Add water and next 4 ingredients (water through tomatoes); bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer 2 minutes. Add fish; cover and simmer 5 minutes or until fish flakes easily when tested with a fork. Top with olives.

I like to fry up some fillets. Then cook up seafood stir fry. toss in the fillets and now you have a meal full of shrimp, scallops, walleye and vegetables.

[wishing for walleyes]

I always deep fry my walleyes.Uncle Dons chuck wagon onion ring batter with a little lawrys salt.A plate full never lasts until another platefull is done.
