Steak, polenta with hot and spicy garlic oil and steamed asparagus.
Very simple here. We just cut up some of the polenta, baked it in the oven a bit to warm it up and drizzled it with a fantastic hot and spicy garlic oil from the pantry. The oil added just the right touch of flavor and heat.

The texture of crisped bacon, the bite of asiago cheese and the color of the green peas was a great accompaniment for the fresh scallops, caramelized to perfection. You can use an apple corer or a cordial glass to cut the polenta into the small coin shapes.

We mixed the polenta pieces with quartered grape tomato and drizzled with warm pesto sauce, topped with finely grated pecorino romano.

Realize this is an old post for you, but WOW this is making me want to run out and buy polenta right now! Polenta is one of my faves, thanks for reminding me and showing us innovative ways to serve it. =)
