INGREDIENTS
8 oz shrimp
0.25 cup stone-ground grits
1 cup water
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup bell pepper
0.25 cup yellow onion
0.25 cup celery
1 tsp Cajun seasoning
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp lemon juice
1 tbsp fresh parsley
PREPARATION
In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water and 0.25 tsp sea salt to a boil.
Slowly whisk in 0.25 cup stone-ground grits, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until tender.
Remove grits from heat and stir in 0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt until the consistency is smooth and creamy.
While grits cook, heat 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add 0.25 cup diced onion, 0.25 cup diced celery, and 0.5 cup diced bell pepper to the skillet, sautéing for 5 minutes until softened.
Toss 8 oz shrimp with 1 tsp Cajun seasoning and 0.25 tsp black pepper, then add to the skillet.
Cook shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then stir in 1 tsp lemon juice.
Divide the creamy grits into a bowl, top with the zesty shrimp and vegetable mixture, and garnish with 1 tbsp fresh parsley.
