Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Grits
In a medium saucepan, bring chicken broth to a boil. Slowly whisk in the corn grits, reduce heat to low, and cook until thickened (about 20 minutes), stirring occasionally. Stir in heavy cream and shredded cheddar cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook the Sausage and Vegetables
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced andouille sausage and cook until browned (about 5 minutes). Add diced onion, red bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté until vegetables are tender (about 5 minutes).
Add Shrimp
Stir in the peeled shrimp and Cajun seasoning. Cook until shrimp are pink and cooked through (about 3-4 minutes). Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Serve
Spoon the creamy cheese grits into bowls and top with the shrimp and sausage mixture. Serve with garlic bread and lemon wedges on the side.
