Nola Bbq Shrimp & Grits Recipe

Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Grits

   In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Slowly whisk in the stone-ground grits and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the grits are thick and creamy.

2. 2

   Add Gouda and Butter

   Once the grits are cooked, stir in the shredded Gouda cheese, 2 tablespoons of butter, and season with salt and black pepper to taste. Keep warm.

3. 3

   Cook the Shrimp

   In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp, Worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.

4. 4

   Serve

   To serve, spoon the gouda grits onto plates, top with the BBQ shrimp, and garnish with chopped green onions.
