Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Slowly add the grits, whisking to prevent lumps. Reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for about 20 minutes until thickened, stirring occasionally. Once cooked, stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, melt the remaining stick of butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Add the shrimp, Worcestershire sauce, sherry, paprika, cayenne pepper, and a pinch of salt. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Finish and Serve

    Once the shrimp are cooked, remove from heat and stir in the sliced green onions. Serve the shrimp over a generous scoop of grits, garnished with additional green onions if desired.
