Adapted from this Fine Cooking recipe by Paula Wolfert. Oven-baking polenta is game changing: just throw it in the oven, give it a stir 40 minutes later, bake it for 20 minutes more. For years, I've made Mark Bittman's Polenta without Fear, which is also simple, but I prefer the hands-off nature of the oven-baked version. (See notes below the recipe for making Instant Pot polenta.) I love the combination of polenta with a poached egg and a drizzle of truffle oil. A side of sautéed greens makes the meal feel more complete. Here I've served the polenta with another Paula Wolfert/Fine Cooking recipe for caramelized cabbage, which takes longer than quickly sautéing greens, but which is a good one to know should you find yourself overloaded with cabbage, as I found myself a few weeks ago. Polenta is also delicious with this sherry vinegar chicken, braised short ribs, and most recently I spooned these slow-cooker beans over it, which was also delicious. Re water: If you use 5 cups of water, it will take longer for the polenta to thicken up, but in the end, it will be ultra creamy and delicious. Four cups still yields a creamy polenta, and it will allow the polenta to thicken more quickly. You can use all water if you don't want to use any milk.

Published in December, 1991, this recipe for Chicken Alouette still remains popular with readers of Southern Living. Ideal for a shower, brunch or holiday meal, pair this dish with a tossed salad, green beans, or a congealed salad. Alouette Cheese is a creamy garlic and herb spreadable cheese found in the dairy section of the grocery store. Aside from using it in this recipe, spread it on apple and pear wedges, or smear it on crostini and top with your favorite jam or preserve. If the chicken breasts seem rather large, you may want to flatten them to a more uniform thickness to ensure even cooking. Place each breast between two sheets of wax paper or plastic wrap and simply use a rolling pin or meat mallet to pound them to the desired size.

Moroccan-Style Chicken Sandwich Recipe
TomatillosTomatillos are also called "tomate verde" in Mexico (which means green tomato) and are considered a staple in Mexican cooking. Tomatillo is a member of the nightshade family, related to tomatoes. It now grows everywhere in the Western Hemisphere and is common in Texas gardens.The fruit of the tomatillo is green and about the size of a large cherry tomato. The inside is white and meatier than a tomato. They grow to maturity inside of a husk. They can range in size from about an inch in diameter to the size of apricots. They are covered by a papery husk which may range from the pale green color of the fruit itself to a light grocery-bag brown. The husks are inedible and should be removed before use.Some delicious recipes using Tomatillos. Tomatillo Equivalent:1 pound fresh tomatillos = 1 (11-ounce) can of tomatillos.Growing Tomatillos:When growing your own, they are ripe when the tomatillo fills out its papery husk but are still green in color. If they turn yellow, they are still useable but at this stage loose much of their tangy flavor.The plants will grow to a height of 3 to 4 feet. They are generally available from May through November and are drought tolerant.Some people will let them ripen until they are yellow-white; some even turn purple (the skin at least). The flavor of the fully ripe tomatillo is very sweet and adds an unusual taste to salsas. Purchasing Tomatillos:Choose small tomatillos. They are sweeter than the larger, golf-ball-size ones.The condition of the "husk" is a good indication of the freshness of the fruit. The husk should be light brown and fresh looking (not shriveled and dried). Unlike tomatoes, tomatillos should be firm and free of defects. Storing Tomatillos:If you are not going to use them immediately, leave the husks intact, wrapped around the fruit like little paper bags. Either store on the counter or in the refrigerator. They should never be stored in air-tight containers. They will keep well for several weeks to a month. They may also be frozen whole or sliced. Preparing Tomatillos:Remove the husks before using as the husks are inedible. Tomatillos are very easy to cook with because they don't need to be peeled or seeded. Their texture is firm when raw, but soften when cooked. When growing your own fresh tomatillos, they are ready to harvest when the husks burst. Rinse before using as the tomatillo is covered by a sticky substance. Do not peel the green skin. Cooking Tomatillos:Tomatillos can by very inconsistent in flavor, with some being sour and others tasting mild and sweet. If the tomatillos are to tart for your taste, try adding a little sugar to balance the taste.Raw - Raw or uncooked tomatillos are often in Mexican sauces. They add a fresh citrus-like flavor.Blanching - Blanching mellows the flavor. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the whole tomatillos (husks removed and rinsed) and boil for approximately 5 minutes or until soft. Drain and crush or puree as directed in your recipe.Fire Roasting - Roast under the broiler, with a propane torch, or over an open flame such as a grill. Make sure the heat is quite hot before roasting. If the heat is not hot enough, the tomatillos wil turn mushy before being charred. The charred or slightly blackened skins will enrich your sauces with a smoky flavor.Dry Roasting - This will produce an earthy, nutty flavor. Place the tomatillos in a heavy fry pan (preferably a cast iron pan). Turn heat to low and roast for approximately 20 to 30 minutes, turning
