Healthy Cajun Shrimp with Creamy Grits
Savor the spicy kick of Cajun-seasoned shrimp contrasted against a smooth, creamy base of perfectly prepared grits. This dish delivers a delicious balance of heat and comfort, making it a versatile, satisfying meal suitable for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
4 ounces Shrimp
1/3 cup Quick Grits (dry)
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 cup Water
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Season them with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
In a small saucepan, combine the water and grated grits. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the grits thicken and become creamy, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the low-fat milk and unsalted butter into the grits to enhance creaminess. Adjust seasoning as needed.
While the grits are cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sauté the seasoned shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are pink and cooked through.
To serve, spoon a generous portion of creamy grits onto a plate and top with the Cajun shrimp. Enjoy immediately.
