Pan Fried Filet of Skate

This is a type of fish that many people never heard off. It comes from the shark family and is a type of a sting ray fish. Only wings of the fish are eatable to my knowledge. It has a distinct texture and can not be missed!

The best way to prepare it is to pan fry it with butter and caper sauce. I was making it for diner for all of us and omited capers part because I did not have any on hand.

Wash the fillet thoroughly and pat try with bounty sheet. Preheat a large saute pan with butter. Dredge fish fillets in flour on both sides and place it in the pan. Fry it for about 5 minutes on first side till brown crust forms then flip and fry for about 3 more minutes and add more butter and drained capers at this point if you are using any and cook for few more minutes. That's it the diner is ready!
I served it with a side of a garden salad dressed with sour cream.
Great experience!
