Ingredients
Instructions
1. In a pot, add 6 cups of water and the cornmeal/grits. Leave to soak for 1-4 hours for texture (optional)
2. Bring to a boil and then simmer for 10 minutes, then add a sprig of rosemary. Stir every few minutes to prevent burning on the bottom.
3. Continue cooking for another 10 minutes or until all the liquid is soaked in.
4. Heat the grill, stovetop grill or skillet till the oil sizzles, then add the seasoned portobello mushrooms
5. Drizzle balsamic vinegar on each mushroom and let it cook for 5-7 minutes
6. Flip the Portobellos, drizzle more balsamic and cook until desired (rare, med, well-done)
7. Remove from stovetop and slice at an angle for presentation
8. On each plate, smash the polenta into a flat circle shape and then cover with the steaks.
Notes
For the grits: I basically followed the directions on the box of my polenta grits and added my own spin to them. Let me know if you have any questions.
For the portobellos: Just like everyone likes their steaks differently, you may like your portobellos differently. Feel free to play around before you serve for a crowd!
