Here's a Bobby Flay recipe for fish tacos. Really, as long as you follow the basic concept, they will turn out awesome. Cook fish, put it in a toasted corn tortilla, put what ever you like on it, eat it. Repeat until you can't eat anymore.

Tacos:

1 pound white flaky fish, such as mahi mahi or orata

1/4 cup canola oil

1 lime, juiced

1 tablespoons ancho chili powder

1 jalapeno, coarsely chopped

1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro leaves

8 flour tortillas

Garnish:

Shredded white cabbage

Hot sauce

Crema or sour cream

Thinly sliced red onion

Thinly sliced green onion

Chopped cilantro leaves

Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Place fish in a medium size dish. Whisk together the oil, lime juice, ancho, jalapeno, and cilantro and pour over the fish. Let marinate for 15 to 20 minutes.

Remove the fish from the marinade place onto a hot grill, flesh side down. Grill the fish for 4 minutes on the first side and then flip for 30 seconds and remove. Let rest for 5 minutes then flake the fish with a fork.

Place the tortillas on the grill and grill for 20 seconds. Divide the fish among the tortillas and garnish with any or all of the garnishes.

Breakfast Hash

The night before boil a couple three medium potatoes. As well as boil, poach, steam, smoke a couple 3 medium fish filets. Let cool covered in the fridge.

Next morning flake fish, dice the taters, fine cut half a medium onion, fry and cut up a couple pieces of thick strip bacon. Combine in a bowl...add 2 tbs of cider vinegar, salt and pepper to taste. Loosely toss. Fry up in reserved bacon grease in a nonstick pan only turning once if possible. Trick is to get it crunchy without burning. Use the spatula to press, firm up, form sides like with hash browns.

Walleye Scampi

Poach walleye fillets in white wine, butter, lemon juice, a bit of lemon zest, lots of garlic, salt and pepper to taste. I cook it down until the liquid becomes semi sauce consistency. I've had the best luck setting the fillet aside and tossing angel hair pasta with the sauce then laying either pulled apart fillets or the whole fillet on top. Garnish with fresh parsly and garlic toast.

Crappie Chowder

5 slices bacon

1/2 cup onion

1/2 cup chopped carrot (diced small or grated)

1/4 cup chopped celery

5-6 crappie fillets (cut into 1" pieces) Or any fish

4-5 red potatos peeled, cut into 1/2" cubes

1 quart water

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp pepper

1 16oz. evap. milk

1 16oz. cream style corn

1 can chopped clams

in dutch oven or large pot

put potatoes in seperate pot w/ just enough water to cover...boil till tender. drain

Cook bacon in pot or dutch oven till crispy. Set aside. Leave small amount (2tblsp) drippings in pot.

Add onion, carrot, and celery to drippings and cook on Med. heat till tender, stirring constantly. Add crappie, clams, potatoes, water, salt and pepper. Bring to boil over med-high heat. Reduce heat to low, simmer covered for 8-10 minutes till fish is firm and opaque and begins to flake.

Blend in milk and corn. Cook over med. heat (do not boil or scorch) about 7-10 minutes until mixture is hot, stirring occasionally. Keep warm on low - med/low till serving. Crumble bacon on top of each serving. Enjoy w/ fresh croissants or bread sticks or crusty bread.

If you like a little thicker chowder, add a can of cream of potatoe soup. I made a pot of this up last weekend with 4 walleye fillets, added the crm of pot soup it was perfect! The entire pot was gone in less than an hour. Got several compliments from 1st time tasters of chowder.

Good Luck!

For a healthier soup try this one... Started out with a basic fish soup recipe and changed it up to turn into this... turned out pretty darn good... not at all your typical meek, cream based fish soup...

Ingredients

1/2 onion, chopped

1 medium carrot diced small

1 stalked of celery sliced

1 clove garlic, minced

1 - 1 1/2 tsp chili powder (your taste)

1 box or 2 cans chicken broth (use a good quality broth)

1 can rotelle w/green chile peppers

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 can fire roasted diced tomatoes

3/4 cup diced bell pepper (I used 50-50 red green)

3-4 slices canadian bacon (optional)

1/2 - 1 pound walleye fillets (really any fish will work)

1 - 1 1/2 cup cooked wild rice

1 cup plain nonfat yogurt

Salt and Pepper to taste

In a large saucepan add a tblsp of olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery and diced canadian bacon and saute, stirring often, for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and chili powder and saute for 2 more minutes.

Then add the chicken broth, rotelle and cumin, stirring well. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

Next, add the tomatoes, bell pepper, rice and fish. Return to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for approx. another 5 minutes. Gradually stir in the yogurt until heated through.

I think it turned out fantasic! Has a little heat, but not 'hot'. Very flavorful! Very easy to make! Not too sure if the Canadian Bacon did what I was looking for (used mostly for texture), I think I may try a small amount of a good quality diced ham or a thicker sliced Canadian bacon... even think a few good quality larger shrimp added in would be a nice addition.

Good Luck!

Here's what I've been doing lately and it's a nice change from fried.

Using about a 50/50 mix of Panko and Pecan pieces for the dry coating.

Coat Walleye with flour

Dip Walleye in egg wash

Coat Walleye with Panko/Pecan mixture

Put on a cookie sheet and bake in oven 350 until done.

Taste great and is a healthy option from fried.
