Honey-Fried Walleye

TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 15 min. YIELD: 6 servings.
We fish on most summer weekends, so we have lots of fresh fillets. Everyone who tries this crisp, golden fish loves it. It's one of my husband's favorite walleye recipes, and I never have leftovers. Honey gives the coating a deliciously different twist. —Sharon Collis, Colona, Illinois
