Servings: persons

2 large sweet red peppers
4 large ears sweet corn, husks removed
3 tablespoons canola oil, divided
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1-3/4 teaspoons salt, divided
1/2 teaspoon white pepper
Dash cayenne pepper
4 walleye fillets (6 ounces each)
1/2 pound sliced fresh mushrooms
3 tablespoons butter

1
Broil red peppers 4 in. from the heat until skins blister, about 15 minutes. With tongs, rotate peppers a quarter turn. Broil and rotate until all sides are blistered and blackened. Immediately place peppers in a large bowl; cover and let stand for 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, brush corn with 1 tablespoon oil. Transfer to an ungreased 13x9-in. baking dish. Cover and bake at 350u00b0 until tender, 30-40 minutes. Peel off and discard charred skin from peppers. Remove stems and seeds. Finely chop peppers. Cut corn from cobs.
3
In a shallow bowl, combine the cornmeal, 1 teaspoon salt, pepper and cayenne. Coat walleye in cornmeal mixture.
4
In a large skillet, saute mushrooms in butter until tender. Add peppers, corn and remaining salt; saute 2-3 minutes longer.
5
In another large skillet, fry fillets in remaining oil for 2-3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with corn salsa.
