Serves
4
5 cups chicken broth
1 cup polenta (stone-ground yellow cornmeal)
1/2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 lb hot Italian turkey sausages, casings discarded
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/4 tsp hot chili flakes (optional)
1 lb mustard greens, washed and cut into 2 inch pieces
Salt
Pepper
Parmesan cheese to garnish
Method/Steps
1. In a large pot, mix broth and polenta. Stir over high heat until boiling; reduce heat to low and stir often until polenta is smooth to taste, 15 minute. If polenta is thicker than desired, stir in 2 to 4 Tbsp of water.
2. Pour oil into a large pan set over high heat. When oil is hot, add sausages and break apart with a spoon. Add garlic and chili flakes; stir often until meat is browned and crumbled, about 4 minutes. Add mustard greens and stir often until wilted, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Spoon polenta equally into 4 bowls. Top equally with sausage-mustard green mixture. Sprinkle with cheese.
