  • 1 cup chicken broth or stock of choice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Preparation

  1. 1

    Cut the polenta into small, thin slices. Place the slices in a small saucepan and cover with the broth and olive oil.

    Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the polenta softens and starts to break down, about 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Use the back of a wooden spoon or an immersion blender to break up any remaining chunks and make the mixture smooth, thick, and creamy.

  4. 4

    Add the Parmesan and stir until melted and fully combined.

  5. 5

    Serve on its own or alongside your favorite dish.
