Baked Walleye with Lemon Garlic Sauce
Baked Walleye with Lemon Garlic Sauce
Being from the land of 10,000 lakes, everyone here loves walleye. But mostly, you’ll only find people battering and frying the fish. Here is a great alternative way to prepare walleye without having to deep fry that only takes 12 minutes total cooking time. If you can’t find walleye, you can substitute other fish such as tilapia, cod, halibut, Chilean sea bass, or grouper.

Croissant, Bagel, and English Muffin French Toast
I really like French toast, but I wanted to do something different with it. So why not change the bread to croissants, bagels, and english muffins?! Let me tell you something…once you try these 3 takes on French toast, you’ll never want to eat he boring old bread version again.
Ingredients

- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 2 bagels, croissants, or english muffins sliced in half

- powdered sugar
- maple syrup
Instructions
- Mix together the batter ingredients.
Bagel French Toast
- If using bagels, they will needs to soak in the batter since they are much more dense than regular bread, croissants, or english muffins.
- Melt the butter on a griddle over medium heat. Place the cut side down.
- Cook for 3 minutes a side.
Croissant French Toast
- Dip both sides of the cut croissants in the batter. Let any excess drip off.

English Muffing French Toast

Green Buffalo Wings
Green Buffalo Wings
I was making different marinated wings at work for the stuperbowl at the crack of dawn and I asked myself, “why not green buffalo wings?” So I made it happen. The sauce is just like the orange buffalo sauce made with a cayenne pepper base, but now with green tabasco. I added a bunch of minced garlic and a serrano pepper to give it an extra kick.
Equipment
- immersion blender
Ingredients
Wings
- 3 lbs chicken wings
- 1 tbsp dried oregano
- 1 tbsp dried cilantro
- 2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 2 tsp paprika
Green Buffalo Sauce
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 6 garlic cloves minced
- 1 serrano pepper chopped
- 1/2 cup jalapeño tabasco sauce
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
Instructions
- Mix the spices together and season the chicken wings. Place on a wire rack over a baking sheet lined in foil.
- Bake in a preheated 400° oven for 30 minutes. Flip the wings.
- Bake for another 30 minutes until crispy.
- Melt the butter in a small pot on low heat. Add in the garlic and serrano. Sauté for 3-4 minutes.
- Add in the jalapeño tabasco, Worcestershire sauce, and cilantro. Purée with an immersion blender and turn off the heat.
- Toss the wings in the sauce.
