Creamy Goat Cheese Polenta Recipes

Steps:

• Bring 1 quart of water to a boil in a medium-size saucepan. Add salt and slowly add polenta, in a thin stream, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Continue whisking until thick and creamy, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cheeses and butter. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring the water, milk and butter to a boil. Add 2 teaspoons of salt to the water and whisk in the polenta. Whisk constantly for 3 to 4 minutes to prevent lumps. Simmer for 45 minutes, partially covered and stirring every 10 minutes, until the polenta is thick, smooth, and creamy. Add the creme fraiche and Parmesan. Check for seasoning and adjust consistency by adding milk or water to the polenta. Polenta may be made up to 20 minutes ahead of time and kept covered until ready to serve.

Steps:

• In medium pot with high sides combine the water, milk and bring to a boil over high heat.
• Reduce the heat to low and slowly pour in the polenta while whisking constantly.
• Cook the mixture for at least 5 minutes, stirring with a wooden spoon until thickened and cooked.
• Stir in the Chavrie®, lemon zest and kosher salt.

Steps:

• Bring the water to a boil in a large, heavy pot. Add the salt. Gradually whisk in the cornmeal. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring often, until the mixture thickens and the cornmeal is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the pot from the heat. Add the cheese, milk, butter, and parsley. Stir until the butter and cheese have melted. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer the polenta to a bowl and serve.

Steps:

• Bring the stock to a boil in a large, heavy saucepan over high heat. Whisk in the polenta in a steady stream, then decrease the heat to medium. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, more constantly than you would think possible, until the polenta begins to thicken, approximately 10 minutes. (Keep stirring; otherwise the polenta will boil up and may splatter on your hand.)
• Add the cheese and rosemary and stir for approximately 2 minutes. Stir in the butter, season with salt and pepper to taste and serve. It keeps well on the stove, though it thickens as it rests. If cooking before the chops are done, which is a smart idea, either remove from the heat at a thinner consistency or add a little more stock later.

Steps:

• Combine the grits, chicken broth and garlic in a large saucepan with a tight fitting lid.
• Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently.
• Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the goat cheese and sun dried tomatoes.
• Continue stirring until the cheese has melted and all ingredients are well mixed.
• Grease a 9X13 inch cooking pan and spoon the mixture into the dish and press with wet hands to spread evenly.
• Can be served room temperature or chilled.
• For entree size serving, cut into 6 pieces.
• For an appetizer, cut into smaller squares.
