PREPARATION

1
Bring water and sea salt to a boil in a small saucepan, then whisk in the stone-ground grits.
2
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until creamy, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
3
While grits cook, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
4
Add diced onion and bell pepper, sautéing until they begin to soften and develop a light char.
5
Add the shrimp and Cajun seasoning to the skillet, cooking for 2-3 minutes per side until pink and opaque.
6
Stir in the minced garlic for the last 30 seconds of cooking to release its aroma.
7
Once grits are tender, remove from heat and stir in the grass-fed butter until melted and smooth.
8
Spoon the creamy grits into a bowl and top with the spicy shrimp and vegetable mixture.
9
Garnish with fresh parsley and a crack of black pepper before serving.
