Creamy Parmesan Polenta
I’ve only eaten polenta a few times and I had never made it before now. I am sad it took me so long! This polenta was fairly simple to make and tasted creamy, cheesy, and delicious. It paired perfectly with the Pan Roasted Pork Tenderloin and the Pan Roasted Bell Peppers with Garlic and Thyme. My husband and I both loved this creamy Parmesan polenta. My kids said it was okay but not as good as mashed potatoes.
How to Make Creamy Parmesan Polenta
Combine the milk, broth, and salt into a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Once the liquid has just started to boil, gradually add the polenta while whisking continually. Reduce the heat to simmer and continue to whisk every few minutes, for 25 minutes. Add the butter and Parmesan cheese along with sea salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Stir until well combined. Pour into a serving bowl and top with additional shredded Parmesan and freshly cracked black pepper. Serve and enjoy.
Love polenta Pam look delicious!

Looks utterly delicious!
I like that you cooked it in milk and broth vs. water.
One of my co-workers recently turned me on to polenta. It is not something I grew up with and I think there is a lot of art in its preparation. I am going to have to give this a try it looks absolutely amazing!
he chicken broth must have added such a great depth of flavour to the polenta Pam 🙂
So delicious. Love when polenta is creamy and your recipe looks perfect.
So glad you’ve got polenta in your life now! It’s one of my favorite easy sides.
Your children are very lucky to have a mother who cooks them such delicious meals. This looks wonderful, as do all the other dishes you share. Thank you for sharing them and have a great week 🙂
