Zesty Cajun Shrimp and Creamy Grits
Pan-seared Cajun shrimp served over velvety stone-ground grits, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon for a zesty kick.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Shrimp
0.25 cup Stone-ground grits
1 cup Water
0.5 tbsp Ghee
0.5 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
0.5 cup Red bell pepper
0.5 cup Yellow onion
1 tsp Cajun seasoning
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Olive oil
1 wedge Lemon
PREPARATION
In a small saucepan, bring the water and sea salt to a boil, then whisk in the grits and reduce heat to low.
Cover and simmer the grits for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally until the texture is thick and tender.
While the grits cook, toss the shrimp in a bowl with the Cajun seasoning and black pepper until evenly coated.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the diced bell peppers and onions until softened.
Add the seasoned shrimp to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink and opaque.
Remove the grits from the heat and stir in the ghee and shredded cheddar cheese until fully melted and creamy.
Spoon the creamy grits into a bowl, top with the zesty shrimp and peppers, and finish with a fresh lemon squeeze.
