A simple but tasty side dish, creamy polenta with dried thyme is easy to make and can be served in many ways. It is savory, buttery, and full of flavor thanks to cooking in chicken broth and dried thyme and finishing it off with lots of butter and freshly ground black pepper.
In a medium-sized sauce pot, bring to a boil chicken broth, water, salt, and dried thyme.
While whisking slowly pour in the dried polenta. Reduce the heat to low. Simmer, stirring occasionally until the polenta has thickened and is tender about 15 - 20 minutes.
Whisk in cubed butter until creamy. Serve with more butter and enjoy!
