Yield

Serves: 4

Preparation

In a saucepot, bring water to a low boil.

Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon EVOO over medium-high heat in a saut pan. Add kale and wilt, season with salt, pepper and nutmeg to taste. Reduce heat to low.

Heat 1/2 tablespoon EVOO in another skillet over medium-high heat. Add peppers, onions and garlic, season with salt and pepper, and cook to tender crisp, 3-4 minutes. Remove to a plate.

Pat shrimp dry, season with salt, pepper, paprika and coriander. Add remaining 1/2 tablespoon EVOO to the skillet, half a turn over high heat. Add shrimp and toss 3-4 minutes until firm and blackened at edges. Add hot sauce then douse pan with orange juice and beer. Add vegetables back to pan, reduce heat and add 2 tablespoons butter. Keep warm and bubbling over low heat.

Add milk to the saucepot with the water and raise heat. Whisk in polenta until it thickens, 2-3 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, stir in honey and melt in a tablespoon of butter.

Serve polenta in shallow bowls and top with some greens and a pile of confetti shrimp.
