Polenta is a hearty and amazingly delicious dish made from boiled cornmeal. What follows is a simple recipe that truly highlights fresh, UP Certified Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This recipe is a crowd pleaser that requires very few steps!
Ingredients
1 teaspoon garlic powder
While polenta is cooking, add 1 teaspoon garlic powder, fresh ground black pepper to taste and the star of the show: 1 tablespoon of EVOO and two teaspoons of Garlic Olive Oil.
Reduce to a simmer, stirring occasionally for approximately 20-25 minutes to create a smooth, creamy consistency.
When finished cooking, ladle into bowls and for the finishing touch, drizzle a bit of Garlic EVOO on top, and sprinkle with red pepper flakes (I used Marash Red Pepper flakes). If you don’t have Marash, normal red pepper flakes will be wonderful
