INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
0.5 cup Quick Grits (dry)
0.25 cup Skim Milk
0.75 cup Water
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
0.5 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the shrimp dry and lightly season with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the seasoned shrimp and sauté for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a medium saucepan, bring water and skim milk to a boil. Gradually stir in the quick grits, reducing the heat to low. Cook while stirring frequently for about 5 minutes until the grits become thick and creamy.
Taste and adjust the salt and pepper in the grits if needed.
Plate the creamy grits into bowls and top with the Cajun shrimp. Serve immediately and enjoy this balanced, flavorful dish.
