For the Voodoo Shrimp
1. Prepare the Stuffing
In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese with finely chopped jalapeño, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
2. Stuff the Shrimp
Take each shrimp and place a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture on the back of the shrimp. Press down gently to secure the filling.
3. Wrap with Bacon
Cut each bacon strip in half and wrap each stuffed shrimp with a half strip of bacon. Secure with a toothpick if necessary.
4. Cook the Shrimp
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon-wrapped shrimp and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until the bacon is crispy and the shrimp are cooked through.
5. Glaze the Shrimp
Once cooked, remove the shrimp from the skillet and toss them in sweet chili sauce until well coated.
For the Cheddar Grits
6. Boil Water
In a large saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon of salt.
7. Cook the Grits
Gradually whisk in the grits. Reduce the heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes, or until the grits are thick and creamy.
8. Add Cheese and Butter
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and butter until melted and well combined. Season with black pepper to taste.
