Grilled Polenta

Ingredients:

• 1 1/4 cups water
• 1 (14 1/4oz) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1 1/2 cups stone-ground cornmeal
• 1/2 cup (2oz) swiss cheese, shredded
• 2 tablespoons fresh thyme, minced
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
• olive oil-flavored vegetable cooking spray

Instructions:

Bring the water, broth and garlic to a boil in a medium saucepan, then reduce the heat to a medium. Add the cornmeal, 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring constantly until smooth. Cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon for 5 minutes or until the mixture is very thick, then remove from the heat and stir in the cheese, thyme, salt, ground pepper and red pepper. Spoon the mix into an 8-inch square baking dish coating with the cooking spray. Cover and chill for 1 hour. Cut the polenta into 6 squares and coat both sides with the cooking spray. Grill, covered, over medium-high heat for 3 minutes on each side or until browned. Serve immediately.
