Baked Skate Recipes

ROASTED SKATE WING RECIPE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200°C (gas mark 6). Toss the cherry tomatoes and chilli in 1 tbsp of olive oil and roast in a large roasting pan for 10 minutes. Season the skate wings with salt and pepper and then transfer to the roasting pan, moving the tomatoes to one side. Roast for a further 15 minutes or so, or until the flesh can be lifted away from the cartilage.
• Make the dressing by whisking the olive oil, lemon juice, mustard and capers. Pour over the fish and tomatoes. Return to the oven for 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve with the lemon, tomatoes and pan juices.

BAKED SKATE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking dish.
• Finely grate the zest from 1/2 of the lemon. Cut lemon in half, remove seeds, and juice it into a small bowl. Mix bread crumbs with melted butter in another small bowl.
• Rinse skate wings and pat dry. Cut into 4 pieces and place in the prepared baking dish. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkle with lemon zest, and pour lemon juice over top. Sprinkle with dill and then bread crumb mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Continue to bake, checking in short increments, until fish is uniformly white throughout and can be easily lifted from the skeleton, up to 5 more minutes; do not overcook.
• Carefully move to a serving platter and garnish with lemon slices and dill sprigs.
