Skate with Mushrooms

OK, I know what you are thinking.  I am not telling you to get your roller skates and get wasted on mushrooms.  Skate is a type of fish.  You could use any white meated fish, but for this I am going to use skate fillets.  So what we need for this is:

1 Skate fillet

1/2 c.  Cleaned and sliced mushrooms

1 c.  Chablis

1 c. chicken broth

1 clove garlic pressed and minced

1/2 t. fresh dill

In a skillet, saute the mushrooms in the chicken broth with the dill and garlic.  When the mushrooms are done drain the remaining broth into another container.  Set the mushrooms aside.

Pour wine into skillet and poach the skate fillet.  You will know it’s done when the meat is a solid white through out.

Going to start presentation at this point, because this is where it begins.

Place fillet in center of the plate .  Surround the fillet with the mushrooms along the outer edge of the plate ( still inside the outer ring).

Add the drained broth/dill/garlic mixture to the wine and reduce to a lite gravy.    Drizzle over fish and mushrooms

Enjoy =-)
