PREPARATION

• 1

  In a small pot, bring water and sea salt to a boil, then whisk in the stone-ground grits.

  Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until tender, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.

  Add the diced yellow onion and bell pepper to the skillet, sautéing for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables have softened.

• 5

  Add the shrimp, Cajun seasoning, minced garlic, and black pepper to the skillet.

• 6

  Cook the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side until they are pink, opaque, and fully cooked through.

• 7

  Once the grits are done, remove from heat and stir in the ghee and plain Greek yogurt until the texture is creamy and velvety.

  Spoon the grits into a shallow bowl and top with the sautéed Cajun shrimp and vegetable mixture.

  Garnish with chopped fresh parsley and serve immediately.
