Almond Walleye Saute Fish Recipe

Almond Walleye Saute'

by Chef Brenda Langton

To serve four . . .

1 c. sliced almonds — broken slightly

rind of 1 lemon, finely grated

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

1/4 tsp. black pepper

flour for rolling fillets

1 egg, beaten

11⁄2 lbs. walleye fillets

2 tbsp. butter

2 tbsp. vegetable oil

Combine and mix the almonds, lemon rind, salt, cayenne pepper, and black pepper in a shallow bowl. Roll one fillet at a time in flour, then dip it in the beaten egg, and immediately press each side into the almond mixture, turning to coat both sides.

Heat the butter and the oil until hot in a large skillet. Reduce the heat, sautéing the fillets at medium heat until crispy and brown — approximately 4 minutes for each side.
