Mike's Potato-Crusted Alaskan Walleye

How have Mike and I never tried potato-crusted fish before? It's amazing, and I'm not even a huge fan of fish! My fish-loving husband said, "This breading is delicious. It's the best I've ever had!"

Another amazing fish recipe made by my wonderful husband! I knew there had to be a good purpose for leftover potato flakes I had in the pantry, I just didn't know it would be this great! Crusting Alaskan Walleye fillets in potato flakes and spices added great flavor and texture! Mike served with broccoli and creamed corn (from my creamed sweet corn recipe), and we enjoyed a fantastic dinner with perfect weather outside on our deck.
