What you need

box cooked polenta

tsp kosher salt

cup parmesan cheese

tbsp butter
Instructions
0 Line a sheet tray with foil and coat with cooking spray. 1 Bring 7 cups of water and salt to a boil. 2 Add polenta in a slow stream while whisking continuously to avoid lumps. 3 Turn heat to low and continue to stir with a wooden spoon until polenta thickens, 5-8 minutes (you may add more boiling water as needed to keep the polenta a smooth consistency). 4 Turn the heat off and add parmesan and butter. Stir to combine. 5 Pour onto a sheet tray and spread with the back of a spoon to cover the tray evenly. Cool. 6 Refrigerate the polenta for 30 minutes or covered up to 2 days. 7 Remove the sheet tray from the refrigerator and use cookie cutters to stamp out shapes. 8 Heat 1 tbsp of butter in a saute pan over medium heat and cook the polenta shapes for 3-5 minutes on each side or until golden (you can also serve these cold). 9 Eat polenta shapes on their own or serve with a red sauce.View original recipe
