Dust skate fillets in flour, In a sauté pan on medium-high heat, melt 1 T butter with 2 T olive oil and heat until bubbling, but not smoking (fillets should sizzle when placed in the pan). Sauté for about 3 minutes per side or until the fillets are opaque to the center. Remove skate from pan and turn temperature down to medium. Add remaining 2 T butter, when butter just begins to brown, add the capers and the fruit vinegar, stir and immediately drizzle brown butter over skate portions.
