SHRIMP OVER CREAMY POLENTA

Steps:

• In a medium-size saucepan, heat 2 cups of water.
• When water comes to a low boil, turn off the heat and slowly pour in the polenta and continue to whisk until it is fully incorporated and it's smooth and creamy.

CHEESY POLENTA AND SHRIMP RECIPE

Steps:

• In a deep cooking pan, over medium heat, warm up the olive oil. Add onions and garlic and saute until it is translucent (about 5 mins).
• Add cumin, paprika, salt, cayenne pepper and tomato paste and stir. Add chopped tomatoes and jalapenos and cover skillet with lid and cook for 5 minutes to let the flavors mix.
• Add broth, stir it and cover with lid. Cook for 5 minutes.
• Add shrimp and stir. Cover with lid and cook for 10-15 minutes or until shrimp is no longer grey - it should look a light pink/salmon color.
• Add cilantro and mix. Remove from heat.
• Boil the water and salt.
• Reduce the heat. Pour the polenta in gradually while whisking. Continue whisking until polenta is a thick paste and water is absorbed by the corn grits.
• Add heavy cream, butter, black pepper and Cache Valley® Four Cheese Mexican and continue to whisk until smooth and the cream is absorbed.
• Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.

CREAMY POLENTA

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.

POLENTA WITH GOAT CHEESE AND ROSEMARY

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.
