INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Shrimp (deveined, raw)
1/4 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits
2 tablespoons Nonfat Plain Greek Yogurt
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1/2 teaspoon Chili Flakes
1/2 teaspoon Garlic Powder
1 pinch Salt
1 pinch Black Pepper
1.5 cups Water
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Season with chili flakes, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
In a small saucepan, bring 1.5 cups of water to a boil. Slowly whisk in the stone-ground grits. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until the grits are thick and creamy.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and allow it to warm up.
Place the seasoned shrimp in the skillet in a single layer and sear for about 2 minutes on each side until they turn pink and slightly charred. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure even cooking.
Once the grits have finished cooking, stir in the Greek yogurt to add creaminess and tang. Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
Plate a serving of the creamy grits and top with the spicy pan-seared shrimp. Garnish with an extra pinch of chili flakes or a squeeze of lemon if desired.
