Polenta Medallions
with Caramelized Onion and Artichoke Hearts
Make this delicious caramelized onion and artichoke polenta, when you want a quick and easy dish made from pantry basics.
This is great for a last minute meal that you can get on the table without a whole lot of effort.
I am a big fan of the pre-cooked polenta that comes in a tube.
It tastes as good as homemade, but all I have to do is open the package and slice.
I regularly purchase Melissa’s Produce at the grocery store, but these days I am staying at home and not visiting my local supermarket.
Melissa’s has put together several boxes of pantry staples with free shipping, so I was thrilled to have the deluxe box delivered to my home.
The organic polenta, artichoke hearts, onion and garlic all came in my pantry box, which made it easy to pull this meal together.
The only other ingredients I needed to add to the dish were extra virgin olive oil and aged balsamic vinegar, which I have plenty of in my stockpile.
I hope you enjoy this flavorful dish!
