Servings and Ingredients

QuantityIngredientAdd
1 (48 oz) carton Hy-Vee 33% reduced sodium gluten-free chicken broth
1 ½ c. dry instant or 5 minute polenta
¼ c. Hy-Vee salted butter
½ c. Hy-Vee heavy whipping cream
2 medium fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped
8 oz. hatch pepper cheese, crumbled
½ tsp. Hy-Vee kosher sea salt
Hy-Vee sriracha, optional
Fresh parsley, optional
Hy-Vee center cut bacon, chopped and cooked, optional

Things To Grab

    Directions

    1. Bring chicken broth to boiling over high heat. Once boiling, lower to medium heat and slowly stir in polenta. *Cover and cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    2. Once all broth has been absorbed and polenta is cooked, stir in butter, cream, jalapenos, hatch pepper cheese, and salt. Sir until cheese has melted.
    3. Right before serving, garnish with sriracha, parsley, and bacon, if desired.
    4. *To prevent burns, make sure to cover your polenta while it bubbles and pops. Once the popping has decreased or stopped, stir to prevent the bottom of the polenta from burning.
