Heat butter in a large skillet over medium, swirling until foaming subsides.

Turn and cook until deep golden brown on the other side, about 5 minutes.
Add vinegar and 1 cup water, then add thyme sprigs, chiles, and sugar and swirl skillet to combine.
Bring liquid to a boil; reduce heat so liquid is at a simmer.
