Shrimp & Grits Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Grits

   In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Gradually stir in the grits, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened.

2. 2

   Add Cheese and Butter

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

3. 3

   Cook the Bacon

   In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove bacon from the skillet and set aside, leaving the drippings in the pan.

4. 4

   Cook the Shrimp

   In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute. Add the shrimp and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning. Cook until the shrimp are pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes.

5. 5

   Combine and Serve

   Once the shrimp are cooked, add the crispy bacon back into the skillet. Serve the shrimp mixture over a bowl of cheesy grits, garnished with sliced green onions.
