Shrimp & Grits Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

1

Prepare the Grits

In a large pot, bring water to a boil. Add salt and slowly stir in the grits. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened and creamy.

2

Cook the Andouille Sausage

In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the sliced andouille sausage and cook until browned and heated through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

3

Cook the Shrimp

In the same skillet, add the remaining butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cook until pink and opaque, about 3-4 minutes. Season with black pepper.

4

Combine and Serve

Return the sausage to the skillet with the shrimp. Add the braised tomatoes and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through. Serve the shrimp and sausage mixture over the prepared grits and garnish with chopped chives.
