Number Of Ingredients 9

3 cups skim milk
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon paprika
3/4 cup quick-cooking polenta
2 ounces Parmesan cheese, grated
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Olive-oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Combine milk, chives, garlic, salt, and paprika in a medium saucepan, and bring to a boil over high heat. While whisking, slowly sprinkle in polenta. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon, until polenta has thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Add Parmesan and butter; stir until combined. Pour polenta into an 8 1/2-inch springform pan; let rest until completely set, about 45 minutes at room temperature.
  • Preheat the broiler. Remove the outer ring from the springform pan. Cut the polenta into eight wedges. Coat with olive-oil spray, and place on a rack in the oven several inches underneath the broiler. Broil the polenta until golden brown on top and heated through, about 8 minutes. Serve.
