Ingredients: One yellow onion, one red bell pepper, Minute Rice, Campbell's Skillet Sensations Sweet and Sour packet, instant tempura mix (it's a powder that comes in a bag and requires only water). Before leaving for the trip, you could dehydrate the onion and pepper after sautéing, but we like the fresh veggies at least once in a trip.

1) Cut fish (walleye or northern) into approximately 2-inch squares.
2) Mix up the tempura batter from the mix in a small pot and set aside.
3) Slice a red bell pepper and a yellow onion into strips. Sauté in pan with a little oil. When done to desired tenderness, add a little of the sweet and sour sauce from the Campbell's Skillet Sensations packet and set to side of fire to keep it warm.
3) Cook appropriate serving of Minute Rice and set to side of fire to keep it warm.
4) Heat oil in frying pan or pot. I usually heat about 1/2" in my 12" cast aluminum pan.
5) Throw 10 chunks (or the number that can fit in your frying pan without touching) of the fish into the tempura batter. Working quickly, remove chunks of fish from the batter one at a time and drop into the oil, being careful that the pieces don't touch. Fry fish until done, turning once to ensure browning on both sides. Remove onto paper towel when. Repeat until all fish chunks have been cooked.
6) Serve up the rice, veggies, and fish. Add more sweet and sour sauce to taste.

Wow! I bet that's good.

And I thought beer batter fried fish was a lot of work.
