INGREDIENTS
4 ounces shrimp
1/2 cup dry grits
1/4 cup low-fat milk
1/4 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese
1 teaspoon olive oil
1 teaspoon Cajun seasoning
Pinch of salt
Pinch of black pepper
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Season with Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
In a small saucepan, bring water to a boil as per package directions for grits. Stir in the dry grits and reduce heat to a simmer.
Once the grits begin to thicken, stir in the low-fat milk and continue to cook, stirring occasionally until creamy and fully cooked.
Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the shrimp turn pink and are just cooked through.
Remove the grits from heat and mix in the shredded low-fat cheddar cheese until melted and well incorporated.
Plate a serving of creamy cheesy grits and top with the Cajun spiced shrimp. Serve immediately while hot.
