Baked Stuffed Polenta (Reduced and Lightened)

I made Baked Stuffed Polenta (Polenta Al Forno) and ended up making so many changes I thought I'd post the new recipe! Despite the fact this has to wait overnight to chill this is a very easy recipe to make and is very tasty with a salad.

• Ready In: 1 hr 30 mins
• Serves: 4

Ingredients

• 1100  ml  chicken stock
• 125  g polenta
• 75  g cheddar cheese
• 2  tablespoons dried herbs
• 9  slices  salami
• 8  sun-dried tomatoes
• 1⁄2 red bell pepper

Directions

1. In a large saucepan bring the chicken stock to the boil and gradually add the polenta. Reduce heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, stirring often.
2. When thick remove from the heat and stir in the the herbs and cheese.
3. Pour the mixture into a lined 19cmx19cm pan and leave to cool to room temperature. Once it is cool place in the fridge overnight.
4. The next day slice the polenta in half horizontally and lay the salami, sun-dried tomatoes and pepper on the bottom half. Replace the top half and bake at 200C for 30 minutes.
