Ingredients:

Serving

1 lb boneless skinless chicken breast
1 bunch fresh cilantro , thoroughly washed,patted dry,and stems removed
3 cloves garlic
1 (6 oz) jar quartered artichoke hearts, drained
8 fl oz garlic oil or 8 fl oz olive oil ( preferable)
1 1/2 cups freshly grated parmesan cheese, divided
salt
16 fl oz water
16 fl oz milk
1 cup polenta
1/3 cup unsalted butter
fresh ground black pepper , to taste
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp olive oil, mixed with
1 dash basil
4 tsp freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 tbsp snipped fresh chives

Directions:

In a food processor fitted with a sharp metal blade, purée the cilantro, garlic, artichoke hearts, salt and 1 cup of the grated Parmesan cheese until smooth.
With the motor running, add the garlic oil in a slow, steady stream.
Pour this mixture into a medium bowl; prick the chicken all over with a fork and then marinate the chicken in the mixture for at least 2 hours.
In a heavy saucepan, mix together the water, milk and polenta; cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for about 30 minutes or until it is thick, and then stir in the butter and 1/2 cup of the Parmesan and season to taste with salt and pepper; keep warm.
Grill the chicken over medium coals, basting with the remaining marinade, until cooked; cut into bite-size pieces and keep warm.
Divide the polenta evenly among 4 large warmed dishes.
Place the chicken on top and sprinkle with balsamic vinegar and basil-flavoured oil.
Sprinkle more grated Parmesan and snipped chives on top.
