Preparation Instructions
Cook the Grits
In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add the grits and salt. Reduce heat to low and stir occasionally, cooking for about 20-25 minutes until thickened. Stir in heavy cream and butter until creamy. Season with black pepper.
Prepare the Seafood
In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon of lobster butter. Season scallops with salt and pepper, then sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
Cook the Shrimp
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of lobster butter. Add shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes until pink and opaque. Season with salt and pepper.
