Donna's Pistachio Basil Butter Skate

Dear Friends, have you ever tried skate, the fish?  It is just so creamy and light and it takes only about 5 minutes to cook!  This simple basil butter sauce with crunchy pistachios is all it needs to make a great entree.  Enjoy!  Best, Donna:

Donna's Pistachio Basil Butter Skate

 Ingredients:

½ pound skate (about 2 fillets)

4 Tablespoons butter

Salt and pepper to taste

2 Tablespoons fresh basil, chopped

2 Tablespoons shelled pistachios

Method:

Melt butter in pan on High heat.  Season fish and place in pan, turning after 2 or 3 minutes.  Add basil and nuts and watch carefully until skate is cooked through as this will only take another 2 to 3 minutes when the fish starts to easily flake.  Serve immediately.

Serves 2.
