Ingredients

For polenta triangles:
3 cups water
1 cup polenta
2 teaspoons salt

Olive oil

For the Braised Peppers:
Tablespoon olive oil
2 cups red bell peppers, sliced
1 cup yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 cup orange bell pepper, sliced
1-1/4 cups sliced onion
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup Chicken Stock
1 Tablespoon tomato paste
1-1/2 teaspoons fresh basil chopped
1-1/2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

2 oz. goat cheese, crumbled
2 Tablespoons fresh basil, slivered
Directions
Make the polenta triangles:
In a medium saucepan, over high heat, bring water to a boil. Add salt, and in a steady stream add cornmeal, stirring vigorously. Cook and stir for 10 minutes, until polenta is smooth and leaves side of pan.

Transfer hot polenta to a baking dish large enough to hold polenta spread to 1/2" thickness. Spread polenta in dish and let cool and then refrigerate until firm.

Meanwhile make the braised peppers:
Heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the bell peppers, onion and garlic; sauté for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the chicken stock and tomato paste. Bring mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until vegetables are soft. Stir in the basil, and red wine vinegar. Adjust seasonings to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.

Unmold polenta and cut into squares and then each square into two triangles.

Place triangles on a baking sheet and brush both sides of each with olive oil. Broil for 5 minutes, turn each piece over and broil other side for another 5 minutes.

Remove triangles to a serving platter and top each with a small amount of braised peppers and sprinkle with goat cheese. Garnish with fresh basil and serve immediately.
