Preparation

Step 1

Heat 1 Tbs. Butter in the small saucepan or the skillet over medium –low heat until melted.
Add the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until deeply browned, 8-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the thyme. Cool completely.
In a small bowl, combine the shallot mixture with the remaining 2.5 Tbs. butter and the lemon zest. Stir to blend well. Lightly season to taste with salt and pepper.
Scrape the butter onto a small piece of plastic wrap, mold into a log shape, and wrap in the plastic. Refrigerate until ready to use. Toss about one third of the butter (a generous TBS) with a batch of vegetables after roasting.
