Cooking Instructions
Cook the Sausage
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced andouille sausage and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Sear the Shrimp
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Add the shrimp, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Cook until the shrimp turn pink and are cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Return the sausage to the skillet and toss to combine.
Make the Cajun Thyme Cream
In a small saucepan, combine heavy cream and chopped thyme. Simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes to infuse the flavors. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve
On each plate, spoon a generous portion of cheddar grits, top with the shrimp and sausage mixture, and drizzle with the Cajun thyme cream. Enjoy your shrimp dinner!
