  1. Lightly beat eggs in a dish.
  2. In another dish, combine flour, bread crumbs, and seasoning.
  3. Dip the fish in eggs and then in a flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour.
  4. Add a couple tablespoons of oil to a pan and heat it over medium heat.
  5. When the pan is hot, add 3-4 fillets to the pan. Cook 3 minutes per side so each is nicely browned. 
  6. Remove fish from the pan and place it on a baking sheet lined with a baking rack. Place cooked fish in a 250° oven while you cook the remaining fish. 
  7. Wipe out the pan and add additional oil. Repeat the process with the remaining fish.

Note

  • I use canola or vegetable oil for frying. May substitute white fish fillets for walleye.
  • Tips:
    Once my fillets are nicely browned, I remove them from the pan and place them on a baking sheet lined with a rack. Then I pop them into a 250°F oven while I continue cooking the rest of the fillets. This helps keep the fish warm and crisp.
    Don't overcrowd the pan. Add just enough fillets so there is a bit of space between each fillet.
    I use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet, but any large pan will work.
    If using frozen fish, allow the fish to fully thaw. Pat the fish with a paper towel to make certain it's dry.
