Spicy Shrimp with Creamy Grits
Enjoy a vibrant twist on a classic southern dish that balances succulent, spicy shrimp with a soothing creamy grits base. Fresh garlic and a hint of cayenne add an irresistible kick, while the melty cheddar and a splash of low-fat milk make the grits luxuriously smooth. Perfectly spiced for dinner or a hearty lunch.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/2 cup dry Grits
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1/4 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Garlic Clove
1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
Salt & Black Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Peel and devein if necessary.
Bring 2 cups of water to a simmer in a small saucepan and slowly stir in the dry grits. Reduce heat and let simmer, stirring occasionally, until grits are thick and creamy (about 10-15 minutes).
Stir in the low-fat milk and shredded cheddar cheese to the grits once they are cooked, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet along with cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Sauté the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they turn pink and are cooked through.
Serve the spicy shrimp over a generous bowl of creamy grits and enjoy immediately.
