BBQ Shrimp Ingredients

Method

BBQ Shrimp Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of grits and 1 teaspoon of salt. Stir well and reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the grits are thick and creamy.

  2. 2

    Make the BBQ Butter

    In a separate pan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and creole seasoning. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant. Remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and season with black pepper. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and are cooked through.

  4. 4

    Combine

    Once the shrimp are cooked, pour the BBQ butter over the shrimp and toss to coat evenly. Cook for an additional minute to heat through.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the BBQ shrimp over a bed of creamy grits, garnished with chopped scallions.
