Stella sponsored a tube of prepared polenta to the South Arm Older Adults Cooking Club as she has no idea how to use it. So, Michelle looked up for a simple Polenta Fries to be made in the kitchen.
The Polenta Fries is baked in a hot oven until golden brown and crispy on the outside. The Polenta Fries are served with a Simple Homemade Tomato Sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 tube (18 ounces) plain prepared polenta
- 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
- Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning or dried oregano

Instructions
 Preheat oven to 450 degrees.
Unwrap and cut the tube of polenta in half lengthwise. Then cut into half moon wedges. Drizzle olive oil on a parchment lined rimmed baking sheet. Place polenta wedges on the baking sheet. Turn the polenta gently to coat with oil. Arrange wedges in a single layer. Season the polenta with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with Italian seasoning or dried oregano. |
 Bake, turning once with a thin metal spatula, until golden and crisp, 45 to 50 minutes.
Drain on a paper towel lined plate. Transfer to a shallow dish before serving. |
