Skate With Capers
(Razza Ai Capperi)
Ingredients:
2 and 1/4 lbs (1 kg) skate wings

Directions:
Cut the skate wings into fairly large pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a pan, add the onion, garlic and parsley and cook over a low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes until the onion is lightly browned.
Add the tomatoes and capers, season with salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes.
