Grilled Polenta

• 3 cups water
• 2 teaspoons kosher salt
• 1 1/2 cups quick cooking polenta, medium or coarse-grain
• 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon freshly chopped thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon freshly chopped marjoram leaves
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for pan
• 3/4 cup grated Parmesan
• 1/4 cup olive oil, for grilling or pan searing

1. In a medium saucepan, over medium-high heat, bring the water and the salt to just a boil.
2. Reduce the heat, slowly whisk in the polenta and season with pepper.
3. Continue to whisk until the mixture starts to tighten up, about 3 to 4 minutes.
4. Add the fresh chopped herbs, 2 tablespoons of the butter and the Parmesan.
5. Continue to stir until well combined and very thick, taste for seasoning adjustment.
6. Liberally butter a 10-inch springform pan on the bottom and about 2-inches up the side.
7. Pour in the hot polenta and with a rubber spatula, rubbed with butter, smooth out the top.
8. Set aside to cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 hours to set.
9. (This can also be done up to 1 day ahead.)
10. Preheat a grill to medium.
11. When ready to grill, or pan fry, remove the polenta from the pan and cut it into equal pie shapes or cut circles with a biscuit cutter.
12. Lightly oil a grill, brush each side of the polenta with olive oil and grill or pan sear until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side.
13. Arrange the polenta on a serving platter and serve hot.
