I'm looking for alternative ways of enjoying walleye other than deep fried? Is it feasible to cut up walleye fillets into chucks and cook them with soup?
Thanks!

We take Bear Creek creamy wild rice soup. Add a wild rice rice-a-roni and dehydrated corn, celery and onions. Put your fish in for the last 5-10 minutes so it doesn't break up to bad. Top each mug with old bay. Very good on a cold rainy day.

You can boil the walleye chunks in water (5-10 min?), then add the walleye to ramen noodles or soup. We always bring an emergency meal in case of bad weather, bad fishing or other delays. This works well and is tasty.

I have had kalamojakka prepared with lake trout - delicious! No reason it wouldn't work with walleye.

I use a fair amount of soups with fish. Boil or fire cook fish. Flake it. Add into done soup to warm back up. I like Bear Creek broccoli cheese.

One meal every year is cooked this way. Walleye, Pike, Bass all get chunked up and dumped in the soup in the last 10 min of cooking. We use the Bear Creek potato soup mix, add an onion and a box of dehydrated hash browns. That on top of a few biscuits and you are living large.

We always bring a bear creek soup or shore lunch soup. Boil fish till it's almost done remove fish and soup mix to water then last couple mins put fish back in. Works will walleye and trout.

We do this too. It's really good, something different and very easy to make. We like to season with some lemon pepper. Tastes great!!

If we plan to add fish chunks to soup we always make seafod stock by boiling the heads (w/o gills). Much better flavor vs water only.

I usually use bear creek creamy potato and a small northern. I add crumbled bacon to the soup, and cubed northern for the last 10 minutes. Topped with some shredded cheddar and croutons it’s fantastic!
