How should I cook skate wings I was in the fish section at the local supermarket this morning.  There was a pile of fish that looked really delicious.  So I asked the attendant what it was.  He told me it's skate wings.  Having never had it before I asked him for a piece.  It was really cheap.  Cheaper even than the hake.  When I asked him why he said it's that people don't know how to cook it, so they don't like it, so it does not sell well.

Being the first time I cook this fish, I really don't want to mess it up.  What's the best way to cook it?
skate benefits from very, very fast cooking and perhaps a very light breading--flour or cornmeal only, not breadcrumbs. classic accompaniments are lemon, brown butter, and capers.

beyond that, I'd google for recipes. Delia Smith had a particularly lovely one in her Summer Collection book, released in the late 80's.
