Preparation

  1. For the Chicken

    • Season the chicken thighs with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. 
    • In hot Dutch oven, add olive oil and chicken thighs, sear for 4 minutes on both sides. Remove the chicken thighs. 
    • To the pot add the onions and sweat for about 3 minutes over medium/low heat. Add garlic and red chili flakes and cook for 1 minute.
    • Once the garlic and onion have softened add the crushed tomatoes. Stir vigorously. 
    • Combine the Knorr Chicken base with 2 cups of water and add to the pot. Add the chicken, cover and let that cook at medium/low heat for 20 minutes. 
    • Once the chicken thighs are done, add the spinach and mix in well. Turn off the heat and let everything rest for about 5 minutes before serving. 

  2. For the Polenta

    • In a hot pot at medium/high heat add the Knorr Professional Chicken broth and add the polenta. Stir continuously for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat, add the butter and mix in.
    • Serve in a bowl and top with freshly shaved Parmigiano Reggiano and drizzle with balsamic glaze.
