Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • Polenta (removed from plastic, cut into 1/4-1/2-inch slices, 8 slices)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 6 ounces parmesan cheese (grated)
  • Salt (for sprinkling)
  • Black pepper (for sprinkling)
  • Gorgonzola or blue cheese (for serving, optional)

Method
 

  1. Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly rub your grill with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  2. Brush both sides of the polenta slices with the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Sprinkle both sides generously with grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper.
  3. Lay the polenta rounds in one layer on the hot grill. Grill for 5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy, showing distinct grill marks.
  4. Remove the polenta chips from the grill and arrange them on a large plate. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

- Ensure your grill is well-oiled to prevent sticking.
- Don't overcrowd the grill; cook polenta slices in batches if necessary.
- For extra crispiness, grill a minute longer on each side.
- Serve with salsa, guacamole, or your favorite dipping sauce.
