Herbed Polenta Recipe


Herbed Polenta Recipe
These dish is a Giada De Laurentiis recipe. It's creamy and oh so yummy! I served it with Chicken Piccata, steamed broccoli and sour dough rolls.

Ingredients
  • 6 cups water
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • 1 3/4 cups yellow cornmeal
  • 3/4 cup grated Parmesan
  • 3/4 cup whole milk
  • 6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
  • 2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions
  1. Bring the water to a boil in a heavy large saucepan. Add 2 teaspoons of salt.
  2. Gradually whisk in the cornmeal. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the mixture thickens and the cornmeal is tender, stirring often, about 15 minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat. Add the cheese, milk, butter, parsley, rosemary, thyme, and pepper, and stir until the butter and cheese melt. Transfer the polenta to a bowl and serve.

Yeah baby. Got my vote.


It's similar to a recipe I have (!) and the fresh rosemary ROCKS! (I was raised on polenta, so I LOVE it)

I've also baked polenta in the oven rather than cooking it on the stovetop. Another thing is pouring in a pan, cool, cut into slices and lightly flour them, reheating them in a saute pan and topping them as appetizers w/mushrooms or italian sausage, etc...

A lot of people think they have to have the 'coarse' ground cornmeal but regular cornmeal from a box works fine. :)
