Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Grits
In a medium saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil. Stir in the yellow grits, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until the grits are creamy and tender.
Cook the Sausage and Vegetables
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the sliced sausage and cook until browned, about 5 minutes. Add the diced onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic; cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the Shrimp
Stir in the shrimp and Cajun seasoning. Cook until the shrimp are pink and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve
Spoon the creamy grits onto plates and top with the shrimp and sausage mixture. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately.
