Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Grits

In a medium saucepan, bring chicken broth to a boil. Slowly whisk in grits and reduce heat to low. Cook for 20-25 minutes until thickened, stirring frequently.

2

Add Cream and Cheese

Once the grits are cooked, stir in the heavy cream, butter, and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.

3

Cook the Lobster Tail

Preheat the grill or broiler. Cut the lobster tails lengthwise and brush with melted butter. Grill for about 5-7 minutes or until the meat is opaque and cooked through.

4

Sauté the Shrimp

In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the shrimp, paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 3-5 minutes until shrimp are pink and opaque.

5

Serve

To serve, spoon the creamy grits onto a plate, top with sautéed shrimp, and add the grilled lobster tail. Garnish with sliced green onions.
