When Cooking Walleye, Do You Remove the Skin?
No, I never leave the skin on when cooking walleye fillets. Always remember to clean your walleye by removing the skin and any bones you find.

Cooking Instructions for Walleye
Get your walleye baking ingredients together. Turn the oven on to 350 degrees F.

A piece of foil twice the size of a regular baking sheet should be cut. First, lay half of the foil on the sheet pan with the shiny side down and the dull side up.
The other half of the foil can then be folded over and sealed around the fish before cooking. Olive oil should be smeared on a sheet pan's foil.

Lightly oil a sheet of foil and sprinkle with the seasoned salt and pepper.

Make sure the sheet pan is completely dry before adding the walleye fillets in a single layer on top of the seasoned oil.

Last-minute, lightly season the fish fillets.

Separate the onion rings and arrange them on top of the walleye fillets after they have been sliced thinly.

Cover the fish entirely by folding the foil over it. Using the side of the folded foil that is facing away from you, roll the ends of the foil together. If you're using foil, fold it in half lengthwise, then roll up both ends to seal the fish inside.



Carefully pierce a few holes in the top of the foil packet using a sharp knife. Take care not to pierce the foil at its base.

Baking Time for Walleye
Bake the sheet pan for 30 to 45 minutes in an oven preheated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
After 30 minutes, test the doneness of the walleye in the oven. Use a fork to try to flake the thickest part of the fish.
Ideally, the fish will be white and flake easily. In the event that the fillets still show signs of translucence or refuse to flake apart easily, they should be returned to the oven and cooked for an additional 10 to 15 minutes.
