In another dish combine flour, bread crumbs and seasoning
¾ cups flour, 1 cup Italian style bread crumbs, ½ teaspoon salt, ¼ teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon paprika
Dip fish in egg and then in flour mixture. Shake off any excess flour.
6 Walleye fillets
Add a couple of tablespoons of oil to a pan and heat pan over medium heat.
4 Tablespoons oil
When pan is hot, add 3-4 fillets to pan. Cook 3 minutes per side so each side is nicely browned.
Remove fish from pan and place on a baking sheet lined with a baking rack. Place cooked fish in a 250° oven while you cook remaining fish.
Wipe out pan and add additional oil. Repeat process with remaining fish.

Notes
I use canola or vegetable oil for frying.May substitute white fish fillets for walleye.Tips:
Once my fillets are nicely browned, I remove them from the pan and place them on a baking sheet lined with a rack. Then I pop them into a 250°F oven while I continue cooking the rest of the fillets. This helps keep the fish warm and crisp.
Don't overcrowd the pan. Add just enough fillets so there is a bit of space between each fillet.
I use a well seasoned cast iron skillet, but any large pan will work.
If using frozen fish, allow the fish to fully thaw. Pat fish with a paper towel to make certain it's dry.
