INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp, peeled & deveined
1/3 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
1 tbsp Blackening Seasoning
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Toss them in the blackening seasoning until evenly coated.
In a medium saucepan, bring 1 cup of water (or a mix of water and a splash of low-fat milk for extra creaminess) to a boil. Stir in the dry grits, reduce heat, and simmer according to package instructions until the grits are thick and creamy.
Once the grits are nearly done, stir in the low-fat milk and butter to enhance the creaminess; season lightly with salt if desired.
While the grits finish cooking, heat the olive oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2 minutes per side or until the shrimp are opaque and slightly charred on the edges.
Spoon a generous portion of creamy grits into bowls and top with the blackened shrimp. Serve immediately and enjoy the mix of spicy seafood and comforting grits.
