Enjoy a vibrant plate featuring crispy Cajun-spiced shrimp paired with silky, creamy grits and a side of lightly sautéed kale. This dish bursts with bold flavors and textures, providing a satisfying balance of spice, creaminess, and freshness – perfect for a nourishing dinner.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/3 cup dry Stone-Ground Grits
1 cup chopped Kale
1 tsp Olive Oil
Cajun Seasoning, to taste
PREPARATION
Rinse and pat dry the shrimp. Toss them in Cajun seasoning until evenly coated.
In a saucepan, bring water to a boil (use the recommended water-to-grits ratio on the package). Stir in the grits and cook on low heat, stirring occasionally until creamy and thickened, about 15-20 minutes.
While the grits are cooking, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the kale until just wilted, about 3-4 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt if desired.
For the shrimp, heat a separate pan over medium-high heat. Cook the seasoned shrimp for about 2 minutes per side until they become opaque and develop a crispy exterior.
To serve, spoon a bed of creamy grits onto the plate, arrange the crispy Cajun shrimp on top, and add a side of sautéed kale. Enjoy immediately.
