INGREDIENTS
8 oz Shrimp
1 cup Cauliflower florets
1/2 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/4 cup Reduced-Fat Cheddar Cheese
1 tsp Butter
1 tsp Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Chili Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Season with salt, pepper, half of the chili powder, and a minced garlic clove.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the shrimp for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and slightly charred. Remove and set aside.
Steam or microwave the cauliflower florets until soft, about 6-8 minutes.
In a blender, combine the steamed cauliflower, low-fat milk, butter, remaining garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Blend until smooth to create creamy grits.
Transfer the cauliflower grits to a small saucepan over low heat and stir in the reduced-fat cheddar cheese until melted. Adjust seasoning with additional salt, pepper, or chili powder as desired.
Plate a serving of creamy cauliflower grits and top with the spicy, seared shrimp. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of chili powder if preferred.
