Pan-Fried Skate & Hazelnut

A really fun tapa (maybe from Melbourne's Movida?). Just plop it in the middle of a table and let your guests dig in.

1 kg skinless skate
flour to coat
EVOO
butter
capers
175 gr of roughly chopped hazelnuts
parsley
maldon sea salt
juice of two lemons (or less depending on taste)
1 lemon cut into wedges
  1. preheat oven 180 degrees
  2. lightly coat fish with flour and salt
  3. heat EVOO, fry skate until golden all over, about a minute each side
  4. season with salt while cooking
  5. put pan in oven for 8 minutes until cooked through
  6. transfer fish to a warm plate, cover with paper towel
  7. remove remaining oil from pan, turn up heat and reduce the lemon juice a bit scraping all the goodness from the pan, poor over fish, sprinkle parsley over the whole lot and serve with lemon wedges on the side
