Turn down heat to low and continue whisking until the polenta has thickened enough that it doesn't settle on the bottom of the pan. Cook polenta for 5-7 minutes over medium heat, stirring occasionally, making sure polenta doesn't get too thick. Keep adding small amounts of water if polenta gets too thick.

Season with salt and pepper and toss so that the shrimp and tomatoes are coated with the oil and garlic. Roast at 425u00b0F for 7-8 minutes, or until shrimp is cooked through and tomatoes are bursting and starting to char. Remove the shrimp and tomatoes from the oven and add the arugula to the pan. Using tongs, toss the arugula with the hot shrimp and tomatoes so that it wilts slightly.
