PUTTING ON THE RITZ WALLEYE

This is my personal favourite recipe. Leaves the fish crisp on the outside,

but is tender and moist on the inside.

 

4 – 6 boneless walleye fillets (about 1 ½ – 2 lbs)

2 eggs

1 – 1 ½ cup finely crushed RITZ (plain) crackers (about 30)

¼  teaspoon, each salt and pepper

Butter or margarine to fry fish in

Lemon or lime slices optional

 

Put the Ritz crackers in a medium zip lock bag and do up zipper ¾ of the way.

Beat or crush crackers until fine. Add the salt and pepper and mix well.

In a shallow dish or bowl, beat the eggs until mixed.

 

Pour some of the crumb mixture on a plate, dip fillet into egg mixture then

coat with the crumb mixture. Repeat for all fillets add crumbs as needed.

 

In a large skillet on medium heat, melt and heat the margarine/butter. Add fillets

And fry 3 – 4 minutes on each side until golden and flakes easily.

Note: may have to add butter/margarine as flipping, you do not want fillets to stick.

Note: the extra crumb mixture will keep for about 2 – 3 weeks when sealed.

 

SERVE With Pan Fried Potatoes or Home Made French Fries
