- 1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
- 3 cups Chicken Stock Or Vegetable Stock
- 1 cup Polenta
- 2 Tablespoons Butter
- 1/2 cups Parmesan Cheese
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- Add sliced bacon to a large frying pan.
- Cook until browned and crisp.
- Remove bacon from the pan and drain on paper towels.
- Reserve about 1 1/2 tablespoons bacon drippings.
- Add chopped onion and saute over medium heat for 3 minutes or until translucent.
- Add greens (stems and all) to the onion and toss to combine.
- Once the greens are wilted, add the bacon back into the pan and the vinegar.
- Stir to combine and serve over the polenta.
- Basic Creamy Polenta:
- In a separate sauce pan bring water or stock up to a boil.
- Add your salt and slowly stir in the polenta.
- Lower heat and continue to stir and cook with your mixture bubbling slowly.
- When the polenta is nice and thick (about 6-10 minutes), stir in the butter and remove from heat.
- Stir in the cheese and taste if it needs more salt and pepper.
