Grits and Shrimp

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add salt and slowly whisk in the grits. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened (about 20-25 minutes). Stir in the Parmesan cheese and mix well.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the diced Benton’s Country Ham and sauté until slightly crispy (about 3-4 minutes). Add the shrimp and cook until they turn pink (about 2-3 minutes). Stir in the Peri Peri sauce.

  3. 3

    Make the Beurre Blanc

    In a small saucepan, melt the remaining butter over low heat. Add lemon juice and cook gently until slightly thickened. Season with black pepper.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Spoon the Parmesan grits onto plates, top with the shrimp mixture, and drizzle with Beurre Blanc. Serve immediately.
