Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the grits and a pinch of salt, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.

  2. 2

    Cook the Andouille Sausage

    In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the sliced andouille sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the Cajun Garlic Cream

    In the same skillet, add the remaining butter. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Stir in the heavy cream and Cajun seasoning. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes until thickened.

  4. 4

    Cook the Shrimp

    Add the shrimp and chopped tomatoes to the skillet, cooking until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  5. 5

    Combine and Serve

    Once the grits are cooked, spoon them onto plates. Top with the shrimp and sausage mixture, and garnish with chopped scallions. Serve immediately.
