📝 Preparation Steps
1
In a pie plate or similar dish, combine parmesan cheese, panko breadcrumbs, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Use hand whisk to combine well. Set aside.
2
Use clean paper towels to thoroughly pat dry walleye fillets, removing excess moisture. Set aside.
3
Pour enough oil in a large, heavy skillet or cast iron pan to generously coat the entire bottom of the pan. Heat oil over medium heat while you prepare the fish.
4
Dip or brush two walleye fillets with beaten egg to coat. Allow excess to drip off.

5
Firmly press enough breadcrumb mixture onto both sides of walleye fillets to very generously coat both sides.
6
Once oil is very hot and smoking, place two coated walleye fillets into pan and cover with splatter guard to prevent oil splatters. Cook about ⏱️ 3 minutes or just until bottom is nicely browned.
7
Use a firm, large spatula to carefully flip fillets over and repeat with other side. Repeat with remaining two fillets.
8
Serve immediately with lemon wedges and any freshly chopped herbs you'd like.
