Delicious Chicken over Fried Polenta image

This is fast & fabulous! Created for RSC Lucky 13. If you can do portion control, this is 4-6 servings BUT it is so good that my family of 4 devoured the whole thing & wanted more. An example of a good recipe for firm polenta is recipe#245560. Enjoy!

Time 45m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 boneless chicken breasts, cubed
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup honey
1/2 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon dried ancho chile powder
2 tablespoons canola oil
4 cups onions, peeled halved, & sliced thinly, approx. 2 large
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup canola oil
4 cups firm prepared polenta (or 2 packages of polenta from the store.)

Steps:

  • Cool prepared polenta in a 9x13-inch baking dish & cut into 8 2-inch squares. Or slice store bought polenta into 1/2" slices.
  • Combine cubed chicken, soy sauce, honey, cinnamon & ancho chili powder. Let marinate while you work on other steps.
  • In heavy skillet, heat 2TB oil. Cook onions over medium low heat until dark brown. Season with salt & pepper.
  • In another large pan, heat 1/4c oil over medium high heat until hot. Add as many polenta squares/slices as will fit comfortably. Cover to avoid splatter & let cook, checking after 5 minutes, until well browned & crispy. Turn over & repeat. Continue until all polenta is fried. Add more oil if necessary.
  • When the onions are caramelized, add the marinating chicken along with the marinade. Cook on high heat until chicken is thoroughly cooked. Taste for seasoning; add salt & pepper if necessary.
  • Serve chicken over fried polenta.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but my husband loved it.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a hit. The chicken is always cooked perfectly and the polenta is so creamy and flavorful.

This was a great recipe! The chicken was moist and flavorful, and the polenta was crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. I would definitely make this again.
