INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/3 cup Stone-Ground Grits (dry)
1/2 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/2 tbsp Butter
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt & Pepper, to taste
1 cup Water
PREPARATION
Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels and season them evenly with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Stir in the stone-ground grits and reduce the heat to low. Cover and let simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until the grits are tender.
Once the grits are nearly cooked, stir in the 1/2 cup of low-fat milk and 1/2 tablespoon butter to enhance creaminess. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
Meanwhile, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and are just opaque.
To serve, spoon a generous portion of the creamy grits onto each plate and top with the Cajun pan-seared shrimp. Enjoy your flavorful, balanced meal!
