To start this Saturday morning off I toasted a couple of slices of Aunt Millie's Light Whole Grain Bread, fried up 4 slices of Boar's Head Sweet Slice Ham, Fried an Egg, and made a Breakfast Sandwich. I topped the Ham and Egg with a slice of Sargento Ultra Thin Swiss Cheese. I also had a cup of Bigelow Decaf Green Tea. Cloudy and 34 degrees with passing snow flurries. After Breakfast I went to McDonald's to pick up Breakfast for Mom. Back home it was laundry day, did a couple of loads. Then cleaned the house. For Dinner tonight I prepared a Bread Crumb Crusted Fried Atlantic Winter Skate w/ Roasted Asparagus and Sliced Potatoes.
I have been wanting to try Skate since I read about it a while back. It's tough to find but I found some on the Sea to Table website (https://www.sea2table.com/). I've left some info on the Sea to Table website at the end of the post. So glad I came across this site they have a good selection of Seafood; Atlantic Sea Scallops, West Coast Dover Sole, Northwest Pacific Cod, and Atlantic Winter Skate. I ordered the West Coast Dover Sole and the Atlantic Winter Skate, and can not wait to try them both! I'm having the Skate for Dinner tonight. All products come frozen and delivered in excellent packaging. There is 2 Fillets per package, I'm having one for Dinner and froze the other one.
To make the Dish I'll need; 1/4 cup of 2% Milk, McCormick Grinder Sea Salt and Grinder Peppercorn Medley, Progresso Italian Style Bread Crumbs for dredging, and 1 1/2 tablespoons of Extra Light Olive Oil. To prepare them I put the skate fillets in a large dish. Poured the milk over them and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Make sure to turn the fillets in the milk so they are coated on both sides. Then I scattered the Bread Crumbs over a large dish. Lightly dredge the fillets in the Bread Crumbs on both sides.
With fillets breaded I heated the Olive Oil a large skillet over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot but not smoking, I added one of the fillets. Saute on one side until it was golden brown, about 3 minutes. Then turn and cook on the other side until golden brown, about 3 minutes more.They came out beautiful! And I have a found a new Seafood to have! These are so good. They fried up very easy and have a very fresh taste, their taste is similar to scallops. I'll definitely be having this again!
For one side dish I prepared some Roasted Asparagus.To prepare the Asparagus I just needed Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Sea Salt, grated Black Peppercorn, Lemon Juice, and grated Parmesan Cheese.
For a 2nd side I heated up a can of Del Monte Sliced New Potatoes. I use a lot of Del Monte Vegetable Products, always delicious and store a lot longer than fresh Vegetables. To prepare them I emptied the can into a small sauce pan. Heated it on medium heat until heated through. Excellent Meal tonight! For Dessert/Snack later a bowl of Skinny Pop - Pop Corn along with a Dieat Peach Snapple to drink.

Atlantic Winter Skate
Hand filleted, boneless, flash frozen
Why We Love It: Loved by chefs and New England fishermen alike, Skate wings are sweet like scallops, delicate but firm like lobster, and often compared to flounder and sole. These skin-off fillets are hand trimmed and fan-shaped, so they make for a uniquely beautiful and delicious plate.
Cooking Tip: For a classic French-inspired meal, pan sauté in a butter and caper sauce, sprinkle with parsley and serve with asparagus and roasted potatoes. Get the recipe.
Where It’s From: This Winter Skate is caught off the shores of Chatham, Massachusetts — a fishing town at the elbow of Cape Cod. With an ever-growing stock level, Winter Skate is rated as a Good Alternative by Monterey Bay Aquarium’s Seafood Watch.
Our Guarantee: We care about the fish you eat and work closely with our fishermen partners to provide you with the very best. If you are not 100% satisfied, we will replace or refund any item within 30 days.
West Coast Dover Sole
Hand filleted, boneless, flash frozen
Why We Love It: Similar to other flatfish such as fluke, Dover Sole has a sweet flavor with a flaky and delicate texture – perfect for a simple yet eye-catching plate. Unlike the European Dover Sole, West Coast Dover Sole is a member of the flounder family.
Cooking Tip: For a classic French-inspired meal, pan sauté in a butter and caper sauce, sprinkle with parsley and serve with asparagus and roasted potatoes. Get the recipe.
Where It’s From: Dover Sole, rated as a Best Choice by Seafood Watch, is from Astoria, Oregon, a small fishing town of about 10,000 people located at the mouth of the Columbia River just a few miles from the Pacific Ocean.
