Spicy Pan-Seared Shrimp with Creamy Grits
Enjoy the vibrant flavors of succulent, spicy shrimp paired with luxuriously creamy grits and a perfectly cooked egg topping that brings a delightful texture contrast. This dish is balanced with a hint of heat and a comforting, rich creaminess, making it an ideal option for a satisfying dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 cup dry Grits
1 Large Egg
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Butter
1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
Pinch of Salt
Pinch of Black Pepper
PREPARATION
Season the shrimp with a pinch of salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and sear for about 2 minutes per side until they turn pink and are cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the grits with water (or a mix of water and a little extra milk if desired) and bring to a simmer. Stir frequently and cook according to package instructions until creamy and thick, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the butter into the grits for extra creaminess. Adjust salt if needed.
In the same skillet, quickly fry the egg sunny side-up or to your preference.
Assemble the dish by placing a portion of creamy grits on a plate, topping it with the pan-seared shrimp, and finishing off with the fried egg. Serve immediately.
