Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 28-ounce can San Marzano plum tomatoes, drained
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt
1 cup instant polenta
Freshly ground pepper
2 bunches Swiss chard (about 2 pounds)
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 7.5-ounce package farmer cheese, crumbled

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450. Toss the tomatoes, olive oil and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a large ovenproof skillet. Roast in the oven until the tomatoes are charred around the edges, about 25 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 but keep the tomatoes inside.
  • Meanwhile, bring 5 cups water to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Slowly whisk in the polenta until smooth and creamy. Add 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat, cover and keep warm.
  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Slice the chard leaves into wide strips and the stems into 1-inch pieces. Boil the stems until almost tender, about 5 minutes, then add the leaves and cook until both are tender, about 3 more minutes. Drain the chard.
  • Remove the skillet from the oven and place over medium-high heat. Push the tomatoes to one side, add the butter and swirl until the butter is golden brown. Add the chard and toss to coat. Divide the polenta among 4 bowls. Top with the tomatoes and chard. Season the cheese with salt and sprinkle over the top.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my polenta turned out too watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use some more seasoning.
