Pan-Seared Cajun Shrimp with Creamy Grits
Enjoy succulent, juicy shrimp seasoned with a robust Cajun spice blend, perfectly pan-seared in olive oil and served atop a velvety bed of creamy grits enriched with a splash of low-fat milk and a hint of butter for luxurious creaminess.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Shrimp
1/2 cup dry Grits
1/4 cup Low-Fat Milk
1 tsp Unsalted Butter
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 tsp Cajun Seasoning
PREPARATION
Rinse the shrimp and pat them dry. Toss the shrimp in a sprinkle of Cajun seasoning until evenly coated.
In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup water to a boil. Stir in the grits and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook according to package instructions, usually about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once the grits start to thicken, stir in the low-fat milk and unsalted butter to achieve a creamy texture. Season lightly with salt if desired and keep warm on low heat.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned shrimp and sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until they turn pink and slightly charred at the edges.
Plate a serving of creamy grits and arrange the Cajun shrimp on top. Drizzle any remaining juices from the skillet over the dish and serve immediately.
