INGREDIENTS
6 oz shrimp
2 cups cauliflower florets
1 tsp olive oil
1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 tsp butter
2 cloves garlic
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Salt & pepper to taste
1 lemon wedge for garnish
PREPARATION
Begin by preparing the cauliflower grits: steam the cauliflower florets until tender, about 8-10 minutes.
Transfer the steamed cauliflower to a blender, add the unsweetened almond milk and butter, and blend until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. Season lightly with salt, pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the garlic cloves (crushed or minced) and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes per side, until pink and slightly opaque.
Plate a generous serving of the warm cauliflower grits, then top with the spicy garlic shrimp.
Garnish with a lemon wedge to add a burst of brightness, and serve immediately.
