INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/2 cup dry Quick-Cooking Grits
1/2 cup Nonfat Milk
1 oz Low-Fat Cream Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
In a bowl, toss the shrimp with Cajun seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Heat olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and cooked through.
Meanwhile, prepare the grits: bring water to a boil in a saucepan, stir in the quick-cooking grits, reduce heat to low, and cook for about 5 minutes until thickened.
Stir in nonfat milk and low-fat cream cheese into the grits until you achieve a creamy consistency. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
To serve, spoon the creamy grits into a bowl and top with the Cajun shrimp. Garnish with an extra sprinkle of Cajun seasoning if desired.
