Crispy Polenta Medallions With Turkey Sausage and Caramelized On image

Up until a few months ago, I never tried Polenta. I was kind of scared of it to be honest, but since we've been into healthy cooking lately I thought I'd take the plunge when I saw a tube of fat-free Polenta at Fresh 'n Easy one afternoon...and I was feeling gutsy. I developed this yummy recipe

Categories     Poultry

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 (16 ounce) package fat free polenta, cut into 12 slices
4 sweet Italian turkey sausage links, sliced into quarters lengthwise
1 red bell pepper, cut into strips
1 onion, sliced, preferably a sweet variety
1/4 cup honey
4 plum tomatoes, cut into eighths
2 tablespoons parsley, fresh chopped
2 tablespoons oregano, fresh chopped
1/2 cup tomato sauce
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Drizzle about the Honey on each side of the Polenta. Season with some salt and pepper.
  • Cook the Polenta on a grill pan at medium-high heat with a little olive oil or non-stick cooking spray. It needs about 4-5 minutes per side. Avoid moving around too much as to create pretty grill marks. Cook until crispy on outside and pull off of the pan. Add the sausages and cook until browned, about 2 minutes each side.
  • In a separate saute pan, caramelize the onions at medium high heat with a little olive oil. Season. Add Peppers and Tomatoes. Season again and cook until softened. Add the oregano and marinara sauce. Cook until all ingredients are cooked through.
  • Place Polenta medallions on 4 plates. Top with sausage slices. Add 1/4 of the onion, pepper, and tomato mixture to each plate. Arrange to look pretty. Top with a sprinkle of fresh chopped Parsley.
  • Enjoy!

I'm not a big fan of polenta, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The crispy outer layer and the creamy interior were a great combination. The turkey sausage and caramelized onions were also very flavorful.

This recipe was a little too time-consuming for me. I had to make the polenta, the turkey sausage, and the caramelized onions separately. It was all worth it in the end though. The dish was delicious.

This dish was a little bland for my taste. I added some extra spices to the polenta and the turkey sausage. The caramelized onions were the best part of the dish.

I'm not a fan of turkey sausage, so I used ground beef instead. The dish still turned out great. The polenta medallions were crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. The caramelized onions were also very flavorful.

This dish was a little too heavy for my taste. The polenta was very dense and the turkey sausage was a bit greasy. The caramelized onions were the best part of the dish.
