For this recipe you’ll need:
- 4 cups water or chicken stock
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 1 cup coarsely ground cornmeal
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, rough chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh oregano, rough chopped
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Place the water or chicken stock and salt in a saucepan over high heat. Whisk in the cornmeal and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, stirring frequently with the whisk, until very thick. Polenta is done when a thin film forms on the bottom of the pot and it is no longer coarse to the taste, about 25 minutes. Tip: If using instant cornmeal, cut the cooking time in half.
- Remove from the heat and stir in the parsley, oregano, butter and parmesan cheese.
- Season with salt and pepper and serve warm with Chicken Saltimbocca.
