INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
0.33 cup dry stone-ground grits
0.25 cup skim milk
1 tsp unsalted butter
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 tsp Cajun seasoning
0.25 tsp garlic powder
A pinch of salt
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp, then season them with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, and a pinch of salt.
In a small saucepan, combine the dry grits with water (as directed on the package for a 0.33 cup serving) and bring to a simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent lumps.
Once the grits start to thicken, stir in the skim milk and unsalted butter to create a creamy texture. Adjust water if needed to reach desired consistency.
In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque.
Spoon the creamy grits into a serving bowl and top with the spicy shrimp. Serve immediately and enjoy the blend of spice and creaminess with every bite.
