INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp, peeled and deveined
0.5 tsp Cajun Seasoning
0.5 tsp Olive Oil (for shrimp)
0.25 cup Quick-Cooking Grits (dry)
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 tsp Olive Oil (for greens)
PREPARATION
Pat the shrimp dry and season with the Cajun seasoning.
Heat 0.5 teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and sear for about 2 minutes per side until they turn pink and opaque.
Meanwhile, bring water to a simmer in a small saucepan. Stir in the grits and cook according to package instructions until creamy, then stir in the teaspoon of butter.
In another pan, heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil and quickly sauté the baby spinach until just wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
To assemble, layer a serving of creamy grits on your plate, top with the Cajun seared shrimp, and finish with the sautéed greens on the side.
