Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups whole milk
2 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1 cup polenta or 1 cup coarse-ground yellow cornmeal
1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper
4 tbsp unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
1/4 lb sharp white cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 tbsp chopped herbs (optional)

Directions:

In a pot, combine milk, broth, salt and cornmeal. Place over medium-high heat and whisk constantly until liquid is boiling. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook 20 minutes until creamy, stirring every 3-4 minutes to prevent sticking and burning.
Remove from heat. Stir in pepper, butter, cheeses and optional herbs.
