Ingredients

4 Boneless, skinless chicken breasts. The ones I used were large: each one would easily feed 2

1/2 C italian dressing or whatever you like for marinade

1/2 C flour

1 C plus 4 T polenta

1 T Herbes de Provence

Salt & pepper to taste

olive oil (approx 2T)

1/2 onion (small large, it just doesn't matter.)

1 celery rib

1 carrot

1 red or yellow bell pepper

1 or 2 garlic cloves, depending on preference

1 14 oz can diced tomatoes

14 oz can chicken broth

1/2 c grated parmesan (or pecorino romano)

4 T gorgonzola (optional)

Directions

At least 1/2 hour before prep. time, marinate the chicken breasts in italian dressing

Toss the flour and 4T polenta together with Herbes de Provence and salt and pepper

Heat deep skillet with 2 T olive oil, about med. high heat

Remove chicken breasts from marinade and lightly pat dry. Coat with flour mixture and saute.

While breasts are sauteing, finely chop 1/2 onion, celery rib, carrot, and pepper.

When chicken breasts are nicely browned on both sides, remove from pan and set aside.

If necessary, add more oil to pan

Saute the chopped veggies, salt and pepper lightly. Cook over medium low heat until tender.

Preheat oven to 350.

While veggies are cooking, prepare polenta: bring to boil the chicken broth with approx 1 cup of water (season with about 1 t salt if using low-sodium broth). Stir in polenta, turn down heat, stir occasionally until cooked, about 20 mins. Stir in gorgonzola, if desired.

Once veggies are tender, stir in diced tomatoes simmer until slightly reduced.

Spray casserole dish with Pam or oil lightly. Spread polenta in the bottom of the casserole, lay chicken breasts on top, then top all with the vegetable mixture. Sprinkle with 1/2 C parmesan, cover with foil and bake for about 30 minutes. Remove foil and bake additional 15 minutes.

You had me with the name! Just a bonus that it sounds wonderful. (I'm thinking that the pun WAS intended, though!)
