GOOD EVENING MY FRIEND'S...!
CAN YOU GUESS THE 3 MYSTERY INGREDIENTS MISSING IN THE LIST BELOW...?
- 1 pound uncooked lean ground beef (with 7% fat) (you can probably use turkey or chicken for even lower fat)
- 1 small onion(s), chopped
- 1/2 cup canned diced tomatoes, with chiles, drained, reserve 1 Tbsp of liquid (I just used regular diced tomatoes without chiles)
- 1 cup canned yellow corn, drained, or frozen, thawed corn kernels
- 3/4 Tbsp table salt, divided
1/4 tsp ground cumin
1/8 tsp black pepper
3 cup canned chicken broth (I opted for water)
1/3 cup salsa
1/3 cup shredded reduced-fat Mexican cheese (Didn't add this)
2 Tbsp cilantro, or scallion, fresh, chopped (optional)

Mexican Beef Over Polenta

- 1 pound uncooked lean ground beef (with 7% fat) (you can probably use turkey or chicken for even lower fat)
- 1 small onion(s), chopped
- 1/2 cup canned diced tomatoes, with chiles, drained, reserve 1 Tbsp of liquid (I just used regular diced tomatoes without chiles)
- 1 cup canned yellow corn, drained, or frozen, thawed corn kernels
- 10 items olive(s), Kalamata, sliced
- 2 Tbsp canned jalapeño peppers, pickled, chopped (optional)
- 3/4 Tbsp table salt, divided
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin
- 1/8 tsp black pepper
- 3/4 cup polenta, quick-cooking
- 3 cup canned chicken broth (I opted for water)
- 1/3 cup salsa
- 1/3 cup shredded reduced-fat Mexican cheese (Didn't add this)
- 2 Tbsp cilantro, or scallion, fresh, chopped (optional)
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef and onion, stirring frequently, until meat is fully cooked, about 5 to 7 minutes; drain off any liquid. Stir in tomatoes and reserved liquid, corn, olives, jalapeños (if using), 1/4 teaspoon of salt, cumin and pepper; simmer 5 minutes to allow flavours to blend.
Meanwhile, in a small pot, combine cornmeal, broth and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt; stir well. Bring to a simmer and cook, stirring constantly, until cornmeal is thick, about 5 minutes.
Spoon polenta onto a large serving plate and top with beef mixture. Top with salsa, cheese and cilantro (or scallion). Divide into 6 portions and serve.
