This recipe was provided by Kelly, my dental hygienist, via FoodNetwork.com and Rachel Ray. It requires a lot of chopping and makes at least 6 servings so I suggest making the stew up a day ahead and cooking the polenta just before serving to be hassle free. This tasty dish can be accompanied with a lite green salad if you wish.
Heat 1/4 cup olive oil in a large pan (Dutch oven) and add the following ingredients as you chop them (mostly into bite size pieces):
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
1 red onion
1/2 package fresh mushrooms
1 large carrot (peeled and thinly sliced)
3-4 celery stalks
2 cubanelle peppers
1 red bell pepper
2 eggplants, peeled of half the skin
Add:
1 bay leaf
salt & pepper
Cover the pot and cook for 10 to 12 minutes then add:
2 T balsamic vinegar
14-16 oz chicken stock
28 oz can whole tomatoes
Break up the tomatoes and simmer until warmed through.
To cook the polenta, heat the following in a large sauce pan over medium high heat:
1 cup milk
14-16 oz chicken stock
1/3 cup golden raisins
2 sprigs rosemary leaves, stripped and finely chopped
Wisk in 1 cup corn meal and stir until thickened. Remove from heat and add:
3 T honey
2 T butter
1/2 cup grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
Divide the polenta in 6 shallow bowls and spoon the stew on top.
