Ingredients
Preparation
In saucepan, bring chicken stock, water, salt, pepper and cayenne pepper to boil; gradually whisk in cornmeal. Reduce heat to low; cook, stirring often, for 10 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese. Scrape into 11- x 7-inch (2 L) glass baking dish, smoothing top. Let stand for 1 hour. (Make-ahead: Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours.)
Turn polenta out onto work surface. With 2-1/2-inch (6 cm) cookie cutter, cut out shapes. In skillet, melt butter over medium heat; cook shapes until lightly browned on both sides.
