Zesty Cajun Shrimp and Creamy Grits
Sautéed Cajun shrimp served over a bed of velvety stone-ground grits, finished with a bright squeeze of lemon for a vibrant kick.
INGREDIENTS
8 oz Shrimp
0.25 cup Stone-ground grits
1 cup Low-sodium chicken broth
1 tbsp Plain Greek yogurt
1 tsp Extra virgin olive oil
0.5 cup Bell pepper
0.25 cup Yellow onion
1 clove Garlic
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 the chicken broth to a boil, then whisk in the grits and a pinch of salt.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until the grits are tender and creamy.
While grits cook, toss the shrimp in a bowl with the Cajun seasoning, sea salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the diced onion and bell pepper for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant, then add the seasoned shrimp.
Sear the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque, then remove from heat and stir in the lemon juice.
Stir the Greek yogurt into the cooked grits for a rich texture, then top with the shrimp mixture and garnish with fresh parsley.
