PAN-FRIED SWAI FILLETS
My husband loves fish. Since I am allergic, I don't partake. Swai was on sale at the grocery so we picked some up. Since he has never tried it before, I decided to cook it in a familiar way for him. He devoured it. I served this with honeyed carrots and fried yellow squash.

Steps:
- Lightly salt and pepper both sides of the fish. Put the flour in a shallow bowl or plate and dredge the fish in the flour until evenly coated on both sides. Shake off any excess flour. Heat the oil and one tablespoon of butter in a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat. When oil is glistening hot, add the fish. You may have to do two batches if your fish doesn't all fit into the pan at once. Sear the fish about 2 1/2 to 3 minutes a side, depending on how thick your fillets are. You want them golden brown. Set aside on a serving platter. In the same pan, add the wine, lemon juice and thyme, cook over medium heat. When it comes to a boil, turn down to a low simmer and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring and scraping the brown bits off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. The liquid should reduce a bit but there should still be enough to make the sauce. Turn off the heat and add a tablespoon of cold butter. Swirl the butter around in the reduced sauce until it melts and sauce thickens. Spoon sauce over the fish and serve immediately.
