Shrimp & Grits Recipe

Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Grits

   In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the grits and a pinch of salt. Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened (about 20 minutes).

2. 2

   Add Cream and Cheese

   Remove the grits from heat and stir in the heavy cream, butter, and cheddar cheese until well combined. Set aside.

3. 3

   Cook the Shrimp

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque (about 3-4 minutes).

4. 4

   Prepare the Eggs

   In a separate skillet, cook the eggs to your liking (fried, scrambled, etc.).

5. 5

   Assemble the Dish

   Serve the cheesy grits on a plate, top with the Cajun shrimp, and garnish with sliced jalapeños. Serve alongside the cooked eggs and toast.
