Spicy Pan-Seared Shrimp with Creamy Grits
Enjoy a savory dish combining spicy, pan-seared shrimp with luxuriously creamy grits. The tender, well-seasoned shrimp pair beautifully with the smooth texture of grits enriched by a touch of low‐fat milk and a hint of garlic, while a dash of cayenne and paprika delivers a subtle, warming kick.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1/2 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk (1%)
1/2 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 clove Garlic (minced)
1/4 teaspoon Paprika
1/8 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Season shrimp lightly with salt, pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper.
Bring water to a boil in a small pot, then stir in the stone-ground grits. Lower the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally until the grits begin to thicken (about 10 minutes). Mix in the low-fat milk during the last few minutes of cooking to create a creamy consistency.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle paprika over them. Cook for about 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
Plate a serving of creamy grits and top with the spicy pan-seared shrimp. Garnish with an extra pinch of black pepper if desired and serve immediately.
