Spicy Pan-Seared Shrimp with Creamy Grits and Sautéed Bell Peppers
Enjoy a vibrant and flavorful dish featuring perfectly seared shrimp spiced with a kick of cayenne and paprika, nestled on a bed of velvety creamy grits. Sautéed red bell peppers add a subtle sweetness and crunch, making every bite an explosion of textures and tastes.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/4 cup quick-cooking grits (dry)
1/4 cup low-fat milk
1 medium red bell pepper
1 tsp olive oil
1 garlic clove
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp paprika
Salt and black pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Season lightly with salt, black pepper, cayenne, and paprika.
Prepare the grits: In a small saucepan, combine the dry grits with water (as per package instructions) and bring to a simmer. Stir in the low-fat milk for creaminess and cook until the grits are soft and thickened.
While the grits are cooking, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic (minced or sliced) and sauté briefly until fragrant.
Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet, cooking for about 2-3 minutes on each side until pink and just cooked through. Remove the shrimp and keep warm.
In the same skillet, add sliced red bell pepper and sauté until tender and slightly caramelized, about 3-4 minutes.
To serve, spoon a generous portion of creamy grits onto a plate, top with the spicy shrimp, and finish with the sautéed bell peppers.
