Enjoy a vibrant plate of Cajun-spiced shrimp atop a bed of silky creamy grits, accompanied by sautéed greens lightly infused with olive oil and a hint of garlic. This dish strikes a harmonious balance between robust flavors and comforting textures, making it a perfect choice for a hearty dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Shrimp (~140g)
1/4 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits (~40g)
1 cup Cooked Spinach (~180g)
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1 clove Minced Garlic
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Toss with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper to evenly coat.
In a small pot, bring water to a boil and stir in the dry grits with a pinch of salt. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook according to package instructions until creamy and thickened, stirring occasionally.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add a teaspoon of olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet. Sauté for 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque. Remove from the skillet once cooked.
In the same skillet, add the cooked spinach and give it a quick toss to warm through and absorb the leftover flavors. Season with extra salt and pepper if desired.
To serve, spoon a portion of the creamy grits onto a plate, top with the sautéed greens, and arrange the Cajun shrimp on top. Enjoy immediately.
