Okay, as much as I hate to admit this, I just love deep fried fish. I know it’s not the healthiest way to cook your food, but just like KFC… every once in a while, I just have to get that deep fried fix! Speaking of KFC, wouldn’t it be cool if you could order a barrel or just the skin? Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…

This recipe works well with most types of fish and of course, walleye is awesome, but I use cod, haddock and halibut a lot too. There’s something a little more traditional about the old Irish pub style that I really like. Make sure you try my tartar sauce too!

This is always a favourite when I serve it to friends. I actually had one of my dude buddies (who has a wife) actually ask me if I’d marry him. Awkward…

Ingredients

2 pheasant breast halves, boneless and skinless.
Bread crumbs
Flour
1 egg for egg wash

3 small avocados
2 tbsp lime juice (lemon will work if you don't have any lime juice)
1 clove fresh garlic, minced
4 ounces (a quarter pound) salted butter, softened
2 tbsp fresh cilantro, finely chopped
Salt & pepper to taste

Well, as I sit here in my home office outside of Thunder Bay, Ontario, I look out the window and it’s crazy-windy, snowing and freezing cold! Yes, we’re in the dead of winter and I just happen to live in Canada! Good thing for my ultra rugged woodstove… It’s days like this that make me think back to warmer days of this past summer. And, what a summer it was!
