Shrimp 'n Grits Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Pickled Red Onion

   In a small saucepan, combine vinegar and sugar. Heat until sugar dissolves. Pour over thinly sliced red onion and let it pickle for at least 30 minutes.

2. 2

   Cook the Bacon and Chorizo

   In a large skillet over medium heat, add chopped bacon and cook until crispy. Remove bacon, leaving fat in the pan. Add chorizo and cook for 3-4 minutes until browned.

3. 3

   Sauté Kale

   Add olive oil to the skillet with chorizo. Add kale and sauté until wilted, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and set aside.

4. 4

   Prepare the Grits

   In a pot, bring chicken broth to a boil. Slowly whisk in grits and reduce heat. Cook until thickened, about 20-25 minutes. Stir in white cheddar cheese until melted and creamy. Season with salt and pepper.

5. 5

   Cook the Shrimp

   In the same skillet used for bacon and chorizo, add shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and opaque. Season with salt and pepper.
