Shrimp and Grits Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Grits

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Stir in the grits and salt. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened.

  2. 2

    Add Cheese and Butter

    Once the grits are cooked, stir in the butter and cheddar cheese until melted and creamy. Remove from heat and keep warm.

  3. 3

    Cook the Shrimp

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant. Add the shrimp and cajun seasoning, cooking for 3-5 minutes until shrimp are pink and cooked through. Season with black pepper to taste.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Spoon the creamy grits onto plates and top with the shrimp mixture. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately.
