Sauteed Greens Polenta Spirals
- 5 cups Vegetable Stock
- 2 cups Coarse Grind Polenta
- 3 Tablespoons Unsalted Butter, Divided
- 1 cup Hard Cheese, Such As Parmesan, Asiago Or Romano, Shredded
- 1 whole Large Onion, Diced
- 3 cloves Garlic, Minced
- 2 boxes Frozen Chopped Spinach, Thawed (10 Ounces Each)
- 1 dash Nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper Sauce
- 1 dash Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Bring stock to a boil and slowly stir in polenta. Reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until very thick. Remove from heat and stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and the cheese.
- Line an 11 x 17 inch baking pan with plastic wrap and then spray lightly with oil.
- Pour polenta onto baking sheet and spread it out evenly, to about 1 inch thickness. Cool to room temperature.
- Saute onion in remaining 1 tablespoon of butter for about 2 minutes over medium high heat, until softened. Add garlic and cook another minute or two until fragrant. Add in spinach and saute for a few more minutes, until moisture is removed. Stir in nutmeg, hot sauce and add salt and pepper to taste.
- Spread greens evenly on top of polenta. Carefully roll up polenta like you would a jelly roll, rolling from the widest side. Chill until set.
- Remove roll from refrigerator and slice into 2 inch thick pieces and place spiral sides up on a serving platter. Microwave for about 2 minutes, until heated through.
