Ingredients

2 walleye fillets
Fresh asparagus spears, trimmed
Olive oil for brushing
Cajun seasoning
Fresh lime juice

Instructions

Prepare the Walleye: Lightly brush both sides of walleye fillets with olive oil. Generously sprinkle Cajun seasoning. Drizzle fresh lime juice over the fillets to coat them well.

Prepare the Asparagus: Toss asparagus spears in a bowl with olive oil until evenly coated. Sprinkle with Cajun seasoning and drizzle with fresh lime juice. Toss again to distribute the flavors.

Grill Time: Preheat the grill to 375°F (190°C). Lay walleye fillets and asparagus spears on the grill. Grill for about 15 minutes, turning the asparagus occasionally. The walleye is done when it flakes easily with a fork and reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C).

Serve & Enjoy: Plate the grilled walleye and asparagus. Serve with Cajun rice or a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Tip: For richer flavor, marinate the walleye in olive oil, Cajun seasoning, and lime juice for 20-30 minutes before grilling.
