Shrimp And Grits Recipe

Brunch

1. 1

   Prepare the Shrimp

   Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

2. 2

   Wrap the Shrimp

   Take the jumbo shrimp and wrap each one with a slice of bacon, securing the ends with toothpicks if necessary. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.

3. 3

   Bake the Shrimp

   Place the bacon-wrapped shrimp on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp are cooked through.

4. 4

   Cook the Grits

   While the shrimp are baking, bring 4 cups of water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add 1 cup of grits and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened.

5. 5

   Add Cheese and Onions

   Once the grits are cooked, remove from heat and stir in the cheddar cheese and chopped green onions until well combined. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.

6. 6

   Make Sriracha-Honey Butter

   In a small bowl, mix together the unsalted butter, sriracha sauce, and honey until smooth and well blended.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve the creamy cheddar-green onion grits topped with the crispy bacon-wrapped shrimp. Drizzle with the sriracha-honey butter for an extra kick.
