Ingredients:

Serving

5 cups chicken broth, divided
1 1/3 cups yellow cornmeal
3/4 cup half-and-half
1 cup grated parmesan cheese
8 to 10 skinned and boned chicken breast halves
1 tsp salt, divided
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
2 red bell peppers, diced
1 large vidalia onion, diced
1 tbsp olive oil
3 cups fresh corn kernels (about 4 ears )
3/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup orange juice
1/8 to 1/4 tsp ground red pepper
garnish: chopped fresh chives

Directions:

Bring 4 1/2 cups chicken broth to a boil in a 3-quart saucepan over medium heat. Gradually whisk in cornmeal. Reduce heat to low, and simmer, stirring often, 30 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in half-and-half and cheese.
Sprinkle chicken with 1/2 teaspoon salt and black pepper.
Grill chicken over medium-high heat (350° to 400°) 7 minutes on each side or until done. Cool to touch, and cut into thin strips; set aside.
Sauté bell pepper and onion in hot oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat 7 minutes or until tender. Add corn; sauté 4 minutes. Stir in wine; simmer 5 minutes. Stir in juice, remaining 1/2 cup broth, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and ground red pepper; simmer 10 minutes or until slightly thickened. Serve over polenta and chicken strips.
*1 cup regular grits may be substituted for cornmeal. Bring 4 cups chicken broth to a boil, and stir in grits. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in half-and-half and cheese.
