Ingredients for Shrimp and Grits

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring water and salt to a boil. Stir in the grits, reduce heat to low, and cook for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened. Stir in butter before serving.

  2. 2

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add shrimp and season with Old Bay seasoning. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the shrimp turn pink.

  3. 3

    Make the Sauce

    Stir in Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and lemon juice to the skillet with shrimp. Cook for an additional 2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

  4. 4

    Serve

    To serve, spoon the creamy grits onto a plate, top with BBQ shrimp, and garnish with sliced green onions and chopped parsley.
