INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 cup Corn Grits (dry)
1/4 cup Skim Milk
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Blackening Seasoning
1 cup Water
PREPARATION
In a bowl, toss the shrimp with the blackening seasoning until evenly coated.
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned shrimp and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn opaque and develop a pleasant charred crust. Remove from heat.
In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water to a boil. Stir in the corn grits gradually, reducing the heat to low. Allow the grits to simmer and thicken, stirring frequently to prevent lumps.
When the grits have reached a creamy consistency (about 5-7 minutes), stir in the skim milk for extra creaminess and adjust seasoning if needed.
Spoon the creamy grits into a bowl or plate and top with the blackened shrimp. Serve immediately and enjoy your hearty, well-balanced meal.
