Blackened Shrimp with Creamy Grits
Savor the bold flavors of perfectly blackened shrimp served atop a smooth and creamy bed of grits. This dish marries a spicy, smoky crust with a luxuriously creamy texture, accented by a touch of Greek yogurt and almond milk for a balanced, satisfying meal.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/2 cup Quick-Cooking Grits
1/2 cup Unsweetened Almond Milk
1/4 cup Nonfat Greek Yogurt
1 tsp Butter
1.5 tsp Blackening Seasoning
1 pinch Salt
1 tsp Olive Oil
PREPARATION
Pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel. In a bowl, toss the shrimp with olive oil, blackening seasoning, and a pinch of salt until evenly coated.
Preheat a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink and slightly charred. Remove shrimp from the pan and set aside.
In a small saucepan, combine the quick-cooking grits and water (use the package instructions for water measurement). Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently.
Once the grits begin to thicken (around 5 minutes), stir in the unsweetened almond milk, nonfat Greek yogurt, and butter. Continue stirring until the grits reach a creamy consistency; season with a pinch of salt if desired.
To serve, spoon the creamy grits onto a plate and top with the blackened shrimp. Enjoy this balanced dish warm.
