Pecan-Crusted Walleye Recipe

  • 1 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
  1. Beat the egg with the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, and salt until evenly mixed. Spread the pecan meal into a shallow dish. Dip the walleye fillets into the egg mixture, then press into the pecan flour.
