For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice over the walleye fillets after cooking. If you don't have pecan meal, you can make your own by grinding pecans in a food processor until finely ground. Be careful not to over-process, or you'll end up with pecan butter! Serve this dish with a side of roasted asparagus and a creamy dill sauce for a complete and satisfying meal.

Jan 13, 2025I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of fish, but I'm so glad I did! The pecan crust masked the fishy flavor, and the spices added a nice kick. I'll definitely be making this again.
