INGREDIENTS
- 1 1/4 cups canned chicken broth
- 1 1/4 cups milk/cream
- 2 tsp thyme
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 cup coarse yellow cornmeal
- 6 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp chives

DIRECTIONS
- Boil stock, milk, garlic powder, and thyme in a small, deep saucepan over medium heat.
- Lower heat and slowly sprinkle in cornmeal, stirring constantly. Cook and stir constantly for 20 minutes over low heat.
- If it becomes too thick, add hot water. It should resemble a thick porridge. Stir in 4 tbsp of butter and chives.
- Pour polenta onto a 9-by-13-by-1/2 inch baking sheet, and smooth out. Cover with plastic, and refrigerate overnight to firm.
- Cut polenta into eight wedges, and sauté in 2 tbsp butter, in a nonstick skillet, or grill until heated and brown on both sides.
