How to cook deliciously - Best Fried Walleye

Check walleye fillets to ensure all bones and skin have been removed. Cut fillets into manageable pieces, if necessary.

Combine flour, garlic powder, pepper, and salt in a shallow bowl. Place beaten eggs in a separate shallow bowl. Place cracker crumbs onto a plate.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large cast iron skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
