SAUTéED SKATE WING

Steps:

• Dredge Heat a large sauté pan over medium-high heat as you season skate with salt and pepper and then dredge in flour, shaking off excess.
• Sauté When pan is hot, add oil and heat until shimmering. Add skate pieces, working in batches to avoid crowding the pan, and sauté until fish is golden brown underneath, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Carefully turn pieces over with a fish spatula and reduce heat to medium. Cook until fish is uniformly opaque and browned on the other side, about 1 1/2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
• Brown butter Wipe pan with paper towels and set over medium-low heat. Drop butter pieces into pan and swirl constantly (to cook evenly) until butter is melted and golden brown, 30 to 60 seconds. Stir in thyme and citrus juices; the butter will spatter a bit. Add hazelnuts, then remove from heat.
• Serve Divide skate pieces among plates, arrange three grapefruit segments over each serving, and drizzle evenly with hazelnut brown butter. Serve immediately.
• Skate is a type of ray fish, with flat pectoral fins (called wings) that give it a batlike appearance. The wings are the most desirable part of the fish, with a delicate, flaky texture. They are most commonly sautéed and served with brown butter and capers.

Using a long spatula, carefully turn the pieces over and brush each with 1 to 2 tablespoons of the Nonya Sweet-and-Sour Sauce. Grill until browned on the second side and the meat flakes easily when pressed with a finger, 2 to 4 minutes longer.5. Using the spatula, transfer the skate to serving plates or a platter and serve immediately.Serves 4Note: This makes a wonderful basting liquid for any type of seafood it will keep for weeks in the refrigerator.
