Grits

Method

Preparation

1

Prepare the Grits

In a large pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 tsp of salt, then slowly stir in 1 cup of grits. Reduce heat to low and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the grits are creamy. Stir in the butter and cheddar cheese until fully melted and combined.

2

Prepare the Fish

In a shallow bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. In a separate bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Dip each fish fillet into the egg mixture, then coat with the cornmeal mixture.

3

Fry the Fish

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully add the coated fish fillets. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.
