Fresh Walleye Shore Lunch

Staying with the Canadian shore lunch theme this month, one of the more common question we get from Cobham River guests is “What is in the fish batter at shore lunch?”. While our shore lunch crew prepares different walleye dishes for our guests during their stay, the most requested is our fried Canadian walleye shore lunch recipe over an open fire.

You can not beat a fresh Canada walleye shore lunch along the shores of the Cobham River, but for those that never experience the Cobham shore lunch now’s your chance to recreate a Cobham classic at home.

INGREDIENTS

2 walleye fillets
1/4 cup of extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon lemon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon creole seasoning
1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornmeal

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat a pan on medium-high.
Using a shallow dish add the olive oil (1/4 cup) and mix it with the salt, lemon pepper, garlic salt, onion powder and creole seasonings.
In another bowl make the dry mixture with flour (1/4 cup), cornmeal (1/4 cup), & oregano. Spread half of the dry mixture evenly on a plate.
Dip both sides of the fillets in the oil mixture, then place them on the dry mixture. Coat the top of the fillets with the remaining dry mixture.
Drizzle olive oil (about 4 tablespoons) into the hot pan. Place the fillets and fry each side for 5 minutes. You need to be careful when you put walleye in the hot pan because the oil does pop.
