6-8 average size Lake Erie Walleye fillets (cheaper to use the fake crab meat
from sam's club.. only like $5.50)
6 slices of peppered thick bacon
2 onion diced
5 stalks celery chopped
3 C of frozen corn
5 potatoes chopped into bite size pieces and boiled 8 minutes (red skin..firmer
potates)
2 qt containers of 1/2 & 1/2 , + 1/2 gal of milk
1/2 C shredded cheddar cheese or pepper jack cheese
2 tbl spoons of dill
1 tbl red pepper flake
Boil the walleye fillets in water for approximately 5-10 minutes (fillets will
be flaky and falling apart). Drain and set aside.
Cook Bacon till crisp! and set aside, using the same large pot.. (save and use
some of the bacon grease) add the oinions and hunk of butter and cook till
clear/browned.. deglaze with 1/2 can of beer. add corn, milk/cream etc to a
simmer.
allow to simmer for about 10-15 minutes. Don’t allow this to boil or you will
burn the cream in the soup. Break walleye into spoon sized chunks and add to the
soup. add the crisp bacon just before serving..
Salt and pepper to taste.
