INGREDIENTS
- 4 cups Water
- 1 tsp Salt
- 2 Tbs. Fresh Sage ; finely sliced
- 1 Tbs. Fresh Parsley ; minced
- Olive Oil or Cooking Spray
INSTRUCTIONS
* Boil water and salt in a heavy bottomed saucepan. Whisk in polenta, lower heat to very low and cook, stirring frequently for about 15 minutes until polenta is thick and creamy.
* Remove from heat and stir in herbs. Spray a 9 x 13 pan with cooking spray and spread polenta evenly in pan. Allow to cool and become firm.
* Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray or olive oil. Cut Polenta into 2 inch diamonds and arrange on prepared sheet. Lightly spray diamonds and bake about 25 minutes, until crisp and golden. Turn to crisp second side, and bake about 20 minutes more. Remove from oven and serve hot.
NOTES
This is a very versatile recipe. You can use any combination of fresh herbs, I often pour tomato sauce or puree in lines on top of polenta before it cools and use a knife to drag the sauce through, making a beautiful marbelized design.
