Method

Preparation Steps

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of grits and 1 teaspoon of salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until grits are creamy. Stir in 2 tablespoons of butter and set aside.

  2. 2

    Cook the Andouille and Vegetables

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the sliced andouille sausage. Cook for about 5 minutes until browned. Add the diced bell pepper and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Add the Shrimp

    Add the Key West pink shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes until shrimp are pink and opaque. Season with black pepper and adjust salt if needed.

  4. 4

    Poach the Eggs

    In a small saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl and gently slide into the water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolk is still runny.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Dish

    To serve, place a scoop of grits on a plate, top with the shrimp and sausage mixture, and finish with a poached egg on top. Garnish with sliced green onions.
