Peeled Skate Wings

We’re talking fish, not bird.  I bought some at Central Market on Lovers this Sunday.  Simply delicious.  I have only been served skate once at York St.  So, I tried a simple pan searing with a butter sauce of chopped tomatoes and scallion.  Did I forget to take a picture of the finished product?  Yes, I did!  But, check out Snooty Foodie’s site for a picture of what skate looks like as a prepared dish.  It’s there with the York St article.  And, in case you didn’t know, it’s in the ray family of fish.  Ray, as in manta ray.  Now that’s different.   Here’s what it looked like before I cooked it.  Funky, huh?
