Preparation Steps
Cook the Grits
In a pot, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Slowly whisk in the grits, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened. Stir in the cheddar cheese and heavy cream. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Cook the Bacon and Sausage
In a large skillet, cook the chopped bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced andouille sausage and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.
Sauté the Shrimp
In the same skillet, add olive oil and minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add the shrimp and creole seasoning, cooking for 3-4 minutes until shrimp are pink and cooked through.
Combine Ingredients
Add the cooked bacon and sausage back to the skillet with the shrimp. Stir to combine and heat through.
Serve
Spoon the creamy cheese grits onto plates and top with the shrimp and sausage mixture. Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot.
