AWESOME GRILLED WALLEYE (SCOOBY SNACKS)



Awesome Grilled Walleye (Scooby Snacks) image

I got this recipe from a guy I fish with up north, I love them; they are absolutely great, and I can't get enough of them. We call them 'Scooby Snacks' and usually have them around the campfire. Be sure your foil is good and sealed. When done, it will be puffed up like a pillow! You can use any white, flaky fish in place of walleye fillets.

Time 23m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 -8 ounces walleye, fillets- (4)
2 -3 tablespoons olive oil
2 -3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 -2 tablespoon lime juice

Steps:

  • Mix Olive Oil and lemon juice together. Sprinkle fillets with thyme, salt and pepper and marinade in oil and juice about 10-15 minutes. I used a George foreman indoor grill sprayed with canola oil so the fillets would not stick and both sides cooked simutaneously. I cooked about 5 mins and then used a spray bottle and spritz the fillets with the lime juice and resumed cooking for about 3 more minutes.
