This vibrant breakfast polenta with chorizo and queso fresco offers a sophisticated twist on morning comfort food. By baking the polenta with sweet corn kernels, you achieve a wonderful texture that serves as the perfect base for the bold, smoky flavours of the spiced sausage. The addition of burst cherry tomatoes creates a natural, savoury sauce that binds the dish together beautifully.
As a high-protein breakfast option, this recipe is ideal for a leisurely weekend brunch or a filling midweek meal. The combination of salty feta or queso fresco and fresh coriander provides a bright finish to balance the richness of the chorizo. Serve it warm from the oven for a satisfying start to the day that feels both indulgent and nourishing.

Ingredients for Breakfast Polenta with Chorizo and Queso Fresco
150g crumbled queso fresco or feta cheese (about 170g )
1/2 cup chopped fresh coriander
3 1/4 cups water
240ml polenta (coarse yellow cornmeal) or regular cornmeal
450g bag frozen yellow corn kernels, thawed
450g fresh link chorizo sausage, casings removed
450g cherry tomatoes (about 850ml )
How to make Breakfast Polenta with Chorizo and Queso Fresco
Preheat oven to 218°C. Toss cheese and coriander in small bowl. Mix 775ml water, polenta, and corn kernels in 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper and stir to blend well. Bake until water is absorbed and polenta is tender, stirring once, about 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, sauté chorizo in heavy large skillet over medium-high heat until browned, breaking into small pieces with side of wooden spoon, about 6 minutes. Add cherry tomatoes to skillet. Cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer until tomatoes soften, about 6 minutes. Uncover; crush some tomatoes with fork. Simmer until tomatoes release juices and sauce thickens slightly, about 10 minutes. Spoon polenta onto plates. Top with chorizo mixture, then cheese mixture.
