Step 1
Bring milk and broth to a simmer in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Step 2
Slowly pour polenta into the simmering liquid while stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring frequently, until polenta pulls away from the pan sides, ~10 minutes.
Step 4
While polenta cooks, sauté mushrooms in a separate skillet over medium-high heat with a pinch of salt until golden, ~5 minutes.
Step 5
Stir butter, Parmesan, and a pinch of salt and pepper into the cooked polenta until smooth and glossy.
Step 6
Divide polenta between bowls, top with mushrooms and crispy sage, drizzle with olive oil, and serve immediately.
