this past friday, justin & i, along with 2 other couples, attended a cooking class at irwin street cooking school! it was an absolute blast & while the girls learned a few new tips & tricks, the boys did more of the drinking & socializing. role reversal eh?!

*serves 2

{garlic thyme butter}

• 1/2 stick butter, room temperature
• 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
• 2 cloves garlic, chopped
• salt & pepper, to your taste

mix all ingredients in a bowl. refrigerate so butter hardens.

• 1/2 cup flour
• salt & pepper
• 2 filets of cod {or any other white fish}, patted dry
• olive oil

1. pour flour on a plate & season with salt & pepper. dredge fish in flour on presentation side only & shake off excess flour. place on a plate.

2. cover the surface of a medium skillet with olive oil & heat to medium heat. when oil is hot & shimmering, tilt the skillet away from you & gently place the filets in. cook approx. 4 minutes on one side, undisturbed. flip & continue cooking until cooked through {approx. 3-5 minutes}.

3. transfer to a serving platter & top with small pats of the garlic thyme butter. allow butter to melt & serve!
