An extremely delicious garlic butter! I love the addition of thyme very much. Used this with an open face turkey sandwich and will try it with fish, too. Thanks for posting!<br/>Made for Spring into Spring with Garlic and Soy /Diabetes Forum).

This is a wonderful addition to my flavoured butter collection! I used it to pan fry my tilapia, as well as to add a pat to the finished servings. I can only imagine how great it will be on steamed vegetables. Made for the December Herb/Spice of the Month = THYME !!!!!
