INGREDIENTS
5 oz Shrimp (peeled and deveined)
1/2 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits
1/4 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Chili Flakes
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
1 Lemon Wedge
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. In a bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, garlic powder, chili flakes, salt, and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque. Squeeze half the lemon over the shrimp during the last minute of cooking.
Meanwhile, bring 1 cup of water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Stir in the dry grits and reduce heat to low, cooking gently for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once the grits have thickened, stir in the unsweetened almond milk for extra creaminess. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
To serve, spoon a generous portion of creamy grits into a bowl and top with the spicy shrimp. Garnish with the remaining lemon wedge.
