Zesty Garlic Shrimp and Grits
Sautéed garlic shrimp served over creamy stone-ground grits, brightened with a squeeze of fresh lemon and a sprinkle of vibrant green onions.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz large shrimp
0.25 cup stone-ground grits
1 cup low-sodium chicken broth
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 stalks green onions
0.25 tsp red pepper flakes
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
In a small saucepan, bring the chicken broth to a boil over medium-high heat.
Gradually whisk in the grits and a portion of the sea salt, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until creamy.
While the grits cook, pat the shrimp dry with a paper towel and season with the remaining sea salt and black pepper.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes, sautéing until fragrant.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Stir in the fresh lemon juice to deglaze the pan, scraping up any flavorful bits.
Spoon the warm, creamy grits into a bowl and top with the zesty garlic shrimp.
Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately.
