Ingredients
For the Polenta
- 6 cups water
- 2 cups polenta
- sea salt
- 1 cup whole milk
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 ounce Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
For the Toppings:
- 1 recipe Chicken Bolognese
- 1 recipe Basil Vinaigrette
- Sautéed Sausage and Bell Peppers
- 1 recipe Roasted Mushrooms
- Chopped Cherry Tomatoes with Basil
Instructions
- Bring the water to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium high heat.
- Slowly add the polenta, and whisk together with a metal whisk, and add 1 teaspoon salt. Reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until the polenta is tender and full cooked, about 20 minutes.
- Add the milk, the butter, and the Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese to the polenta and stir together over medium-low heat until just warmed through and soft enough to drop easily from a spoon. Cover to keep warm.
- To serve - spread the polenta onto a large serving board. Arrange the various toppings around the board and let people create their own polenta bowls!
Notes
- You can add in different toppings as well! Some leftover short ribs would be an excellent addition – as would other roasted vegetables! Basically you can’t go wrong!
