Pan Fried Skate Wings with Capers
Ingredients
- 4 Skate wings boneless & skinless
- ½ cup milk
- salt to taste
- freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 4 tbsp all purpose flour
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 tbsp butter
- ½ cup sweet red peppers cut into ½ inch cubes
- ⅓ cup capers drained
- 2 tbsp shallots finely chopped
- 2 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 4 tbsp parsley finely chopped
Instructions
- Put the skate fillets in a dish large enough to hold them in one layer.
- Pour milk over skate fillets; sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Turn the fillets so they are coated on both sides.
- Lightly dredge the fillets on both sides in the flour.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot but not smoking, add the fillets.
- Sauté on one side until golden brown, about 3 minutes. Turn and cook on the other side until golden brown, about 3 more minutes. When the fillets are done, transfer them to a warm plate.
- Wipe out the pan and return it to the heat. Melt the butter and add the red peppers, shaking the pan frequently until the butter turns light brown.
- Add the capers; cook briefly.
- Add the shallots, vinegar, and parsley; cook briefly.
- Pour the sauce over each fillet evenly. Serve immediately.
