INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
0.33 cup Yellow Cornmeal (Polenta)
2 tbsp Parmesan Cheese
2 cups Water
1 tsp Olive Oil
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a simmer and add a pinch of salt.
Slowly whisk in the yellow cornmeal, reducing the heat to low. Stir continuously for about 20-25 minutes until the polenta is thick and creamy.
Stir in the Parmesan cheese once the polenta is cooked, adjusting salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm on low heat.
While the polenta is cooking, pat the shrimp dry and season with salt and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
To serve, spoon a generous portion of creamy polenta onto a plate and top with the seared shrimp. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of black pepper if desired.
