We have a wonderful fish store near us - Clean Catch Fish Market - that has great and exotic selections, as well as the freshest fish we've had in Charlotte. Last week, we found they it carried skate wings. We were up for adventure, so we bought some and followed the fishmonger's directions for cooking it.
Basic recipe
12 oz skate wing (for 2 persons)
The skate is first breaded with some corn meal, then pan sauteed in olive oil - three minutes on one side, until slightly browned, and then flipped over for a few more minutes until cooked through.
Remove the skate to a platter. Add to the pan some minced garlic, a minced shallot, herbs de Provence (or similar herbs) and cook until soft. Add some white wine and swirl until all ingredients are mixed and form a sauce.
Divide the skate wing into individual portions, pour the sauce over it, and serve immediately.
