Sauteed Walleye
Prep Time5 Minutes
Servings4
Cook Time15 Minutes
Ingredients
16 oz walleye (4 fillets), patted dry
3 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons olive oil
4 tablespoons butter, divided
1 lemon, juiced
Fresh herbs, such as rosemary, chives or oregano
Directions
- Dust walleye fillets with flour, shake off excess, and season with salt and pepper.
- Add olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter to a heavy pan. Heat over medium-high until butter is melted but not browned; turn down to medium. Add fillets and cook 3 minutes. Don’t touch until they’re ready to flip. Use a thin metal spatula to test; if you can slide it under the fish without it sticking to the pan, it’s ready to flip. If the fillets won’t release, give them another 30 seconds.
- After flipping, divide remaining 1 tablespoon butter over fillets. Cook another 2–3 minutes. Fish should be golden on both sides and opaque all the way through.
- Transfer fish to plates, leaving butter in the pan. Cover fish to keep warm. Reduce heat to medium. Add lemon juice and stir with a wooden spoon to scrape up brown bits. Add half the herbs and stir again. Serve fish hot with pan sauce and remaining herbs.
