Some Walleye-n-Wild Onions

cowgirl · Mar 29, 2012

Kind Brethren Phesant (Ken) sent a package of walleye filets and bear lard to me awhile back http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=127637
Thanks again Ken!! :-D

I brushed the fillets with olive oil and seasoned...
placed them on lettuce leaves to protect them on the grill.

fired up the horizontal for grilling...

while they cooked I gathered a few wild onions..
I like to use them while they are in season.

cooked the onions in butter then added fresh lemon juice and a bit of sherry...

added the grilled filets to the wild onions..
let them soak up a bit of the sauce.

debated on a side dish but decided I didn't need no steenkin veggies.
served with a sip of wild plum wine instead. :becky:

The walleye was soooo tasty! I can't thank you enough Ken!

Thanks for looking!

Looks Great! I would have never thought of grilling the fish on the lettuce can't wait to try it now!

No veggies raise my eyebrows but not even a piece of bread for dunking in that butter sauce!?

I'm from the "Land of 10,000 Lakes" where the walleye is our state fish. You did our state fish proud. I like your twist on it. As a long time cook of wild game and fish I especially appreciate how you treat all the meals you make from nature with such effort and respect.

Looks great. Love the idea of using the lettuce to hold the fish while on the grate.

lol Thanks Alan! I had a sip of home made sandhill plum wine. (a sip is all I can handle of that stuff. lol ) :becky:

Thank you Steph, Expat and Certified! It was a real treat for me. I love walleye but can't seem to catch them in my area very often.

Grain Belt thank you! That means a lot to me especially coming from you. I bet I would love living in an area like yours... wish I lived closer to some good walleye fishing. I do enjoy hunting and fishing and anything I bring home gets treated with respect. I'm thankful for what nature provides for me.
I love the flavor of most wild caught foods, nothing more than a hot fire to cook them is all I need to make me happy. :-D Thanks again...

Crash Thank you! The lettuce works great for protecting the bottom. I just close the lid on the cooker and wait. :-D

Thanks again friends!
