From Real Simple [1]

Polenta With Chard

Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon olive oil
    2 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
    1 bunch Swiss chard, stems trimmed and leaves cut into 1-inch strips
    Kosher salt and black pepper
    1 cup instant polenta
    1/2 cup crumbled blue cheese (such as Gorgonzola; about 2 1/2 ounces)

Directions

  1. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until golden, 2 to 3 minutes.
  2. Add the chard, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the chard is tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 tablespoon salt. Slowly whisk in the polenta. Cook, whisking constantly, until the polenta thickens, 3 to 4 minutes.
  4. Divide the polenta among bowls and top with the chard and blue cheese.

Serves 4.
