Zesty Herb-Spiced Shrimp with Creamy Grits
Savor the vibrant flavors of tender, herb-spiced shrimp paired with velvety, creamy grits. This dish balances a zesty citrus kick with a comforting, smooth texture, making it an ideal option for a nutritious breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
INGREDIENTS
6 ounces Shrimp
1/2 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits
1/4 cup Lowfat Milk
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
2 cloves Garlic
1 teaspoon Paprika
2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. In a bowl, toss shrimp with olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, lemon juice, and chopped fresh parsley. Let marinate for about 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring water to a boil in a small saucepan (use about 1 cup water for the 1/2 cup dry grits). Stir in the grits and reduce to a simmer. Cook steadily, stirring occasionally, until the grits are thickened and creamy, about 20-25 minutes.
In the last few minutes of cooking, stir in the lowfat milk to enrich the grits, adjusting consistency as desired.
Warm a skillet over medium-high heat and add the marinated shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the shrimp turn pink and opaque.
Spoon a serving of creamy grits onto a plate and top with the zesty herb-spiced shrimp. Finish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice if desired, and garnish with additional parsley.
