PREPARATION

1
In a small saucepan, bring the water and sea salt to a boil, then whisk in the grits and reduce heat to low.
2
Cover the grits and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the water is absorbed and the texture is creamy.
3
While the grits cook, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
4
Add the diced bell pepper and yellow onion to the skillet, sautéing for 4-5 minutes until softened.
5
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 60 seconds until fragrant.
6
Add the shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle with Cajun seasoning and black pepper.
7
Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque.
8
Once the grits are finished, stir in the grass-fed butter until fully melted and incorporated.
9
Spoon the creamy grits into a bowl and top with the Cajun shrimp and vegetable mixture.
