Directions
- Step 1
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). In a small bowl, mix together herb paste, lemon zest, salt, pepper and 1 tsp (5 mL) oil. Slice each chicken breast in half lengthwise to create 4 thin pieces. Turn chicken in the herb mixture and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Roast for 10 to 15 min. or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.
- Step 2
- Meanwhile, bring the broth to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Slowly whisk in cornmeal, making sure cornmeal doesn’t clump. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, for 15 min. Remove from heat, stir in cheese and milk.
- Step 3
- Drizzle chicken with lemon juice. Spoon polenta into the centre of each plate, top with chicken and drizzle with remaining olive oil. Garnish with basil, if desired.
