Sautéed Cajun-spiced shrimp served over stone-ground grits made creamy with Greek yogurt and topped with a vibrant, zesty bell pepper medley.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz raw shrimp
0.25 cup dry stone-ground grits
1 cup water
0.25 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tsp olive oil
0.5 cup red bell pepper
0.25 cup yellow onion
1 stalk celery
1 tsp Cajun seasoning
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tbsp fresh parsley
1 tsp lemon juice
PREPARATION
Bring 1 cup of water and 0.25 tsp sea salt to a boil in a small saucepan.
Whisk in 0.25 cup dry grits, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until thickened.
Stir 0.25 cup Greek yogurt into the cooked grits until smooth and velvety, then cover to keep warm.
Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the onion, bell pepper, and celery for 4 minutes until softened.
Toss 8 oz shrimp with 1 tsp Cajun seasoning and add to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
Stir in 1 tsp lemon juice and 0.25 tsp black pepper to the shrimp mixture and remove from heat.
Spoon the creamy grits into a bowl, top with the zesty shrimp and vegetable medley, and garnish with 1 tbsp fresh parsley.
