Instructions

  1. Preheat a gas or charcoal grill to medium (400-4750F).

  2. Pour warm polenta into a loaf pan, smooth the surface, cover, and chill until firm.

  3. Once firm, unmold the polenta, slice into 1/2-inch pieces, and brush both sides with olive oil.

  4. Grill each polenta slice diagonally for approximately 10 minutes per side, ensuring dark grill marks appear before flipping.

  5. Serve the grilled polenta hot, optionally seasoned with flaky salt and fresh black pepper.
