Preparation

Preheat oven to 375F. Oil a 10 inch cake pan with removable base with olive
oil cooking spray and set aside.

Marinate chicken with lemon juice, olive oil, and basil. Grill or cook in prepared oven until temperature reaches 165F. Cool chicken in refrigerator. Once chicken has cooled dice chicken in 1inch pieces. Return to refrigerator.

Combine polenta with water in sauce pan. Bring to a boil, and then reduce heat to a simmer, stirring constantly for 5 minutes. Stir in the grated cheese and continue to stir for 3-5 minutes longer. Transfer polenta to prepared cake pan. Spread it evenly over bottom and up sides of pan. Bake in 375 degree oven until dry and crisp on edges, about 30 minutes.

Remove from oven and spread a thin layer of goat cheese over crust. Arrange diced chicken, artichokes and sundried tomatoes on top of cheese. Return to oven for 5-10 minutes longer, until cheese is softened and all ingredients are heated through. Before serving, remove the sides from the cake pan and drizzle with olive oil.
