If the polenta is too thick add more water or rice milk. Once it has reached desired consistency, mix in 1T | 2T of margarine and season with salt and pepper to desired taste.

Turn cutlets over and cook until *golden brown, adding more oil if needed. Remove from saute pan. Stir in 1/2C | 1C white wine (optional) or use 1/2C | 1C chicken stock to deglaze the pan, and simmer over med-low heat until reduced by half, approximately 5 minutes.
- Juice 1/2 | 1 lemon. In pan used to saute chicken, stir in lemon juice, 1/2C | 1C of chicken stock, 1t | 2t minced garlic. Simmer 3-5 minutes to reduce. Turn heat to low and whisk in 2t | 1T margarine. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and add 2t | 1T chopped fresh parsley. Return chicken breast to finished sauce.
- Heat 1T | 2T of oil in a different saute pan over medium heat. Slice squash and add with cherry tomatoes to heated pan. Saute for about 2 minutes. Add minced 1t | 2t garlic and 1t | 2t shallot and cook for another minute. Add spinach leaves and a small splash of water. Cook until spinach is wilted and season with salt and pepper. Plate with finished polenta, chicken, and sauce. Serve & Enjoy!
