Savor the bold, spicy flavors of perfectly seasoned Cajun shrimp paired with silky, comforting creamy grits. A delightful balance of zest and smooth texture makes this dish both satisfying and nourishing, ideal for any meal of the day.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Shrimp
1/2 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits
1/2 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1.5 cups Water
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Toss shrimp with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
In a medium saucepan, combine 1.5 cups of water and bring to a boil. Slowly stir in the dry grits, reduce the heat to low, and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the grits are thick and creamy.
During the last 5 minutes of grits cooking, add low-fat milk and unsalted butter to the grits, stirring until melted and well incorporated.
While the grits finish cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the seasoned shrimp for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and are cooked through.
Plate a generous portion of creamy grits and top with the sautéed Cajun shrimp. Garnish with an extra pinch of Cajun seasoning or freshly ground black pepper if desired, and serve immediately.
