Method

Shrimp Preparation

1

Marinate the Shrimp

In a bowl, combine the shrimp with ancho chili powder, honey, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

2

Cook the Shrimp

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until pink and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

Polenta Preparation

3

Cook the Polenta

In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Slowly whisk in the polenta, reducing heat to low. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring frequently until thickened.

4

Finish the Polenta

Stir in butter, shredded cheddar cheese, and salt until the cheese is melted and the mixture is creamy.

Green Beans Preparation

5

Sauté the Green Beans

In a separate skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add green beans and sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender but crisp. Season with salt.

Serve the Dish
