Instructions

  1. Heat a large saucepan or pot over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
  2. Add the chicken broth and milk and bring to a boil.
  3. Add the polenta and reduce the heat to a low simmer. Stir occasionally with a wooden spoon until combined and thickened, about 20 minutes.
  4. Once the polenta is cooked, remove from the heat and stir in the butter and parmesan. If the polenta becomes too thick, add more broth or milk.
  5. Season with salt and pepper and enjoy!
