All the credit for this simple, delicious supper has to go to my new fiancé. He knows his way around the kitchen and took over last night while I was getting my yoga on. The thyme in this dish will make your kitchen smell amazing and I bet that you will eat every bite and wish you cooked extra for a sandwich the next day!
