Baked Polenta with Bacon and Onions Recipe
|
To make Baked Polenta with Bacon and Onions you will need
Ingredients
| 3 | | Slices lean bacon, chopped | | 2 | | Onions, sliced thin | | 1 | cup | Water | | 3/4 | cups | Chicken broth | | 1/4 | teaspoons | Dried crumbled sage | | 1/2 | cups | Coarse ground cornmeal | | 1 | tablespoon | Unsalted butter | | 1/4 | cups | Fresh grated Parmesan |
Instructions
In a large saucepan, cook bacon until almost crisp. Remove the bacon and
take out all but 1 tbsp of the fat. Add the onions and cook until softened
but not browned. Transfer the onion to a bowl. To the pan add the water,
broth and sage and bring to a boil. Stirring constantly, add the cornmeal,
a little at a time. Cook over low heat, stirring almost constantly, until
it is thick and pulls away from the sides of the pan, 20-25 minutes. Stir
in the butter, 2 tbsp of the Parmesan and half the onions. Spread in a 3
cup gratin dish. Mix the bacon into the remaining onion mixture and spread
on top of the polenta. Sprinkle on the remaining Parmesan and bake in the
middle of a preheated 400 oven until the cheese is melted and just starting
to brown. This serves 2 as a main dish, 4 as a side dish. Can be doubled
or tripled and can be made and assembled earlier in the day and baked when
ready to serve.
