Cajun Shrimp and Creamy Grits
Sautéed Cajun-spiced shrimp served over creamy, stone-ground grits with a colorful medley of peppers and onions for a smoky and satisfying finish.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Shrimp
0.25 cup Stone-ground grits
1 cup Water
0.25 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
0.5 cup Bell pepper
0.25 cup Onion
0.25 cup Celery
1 tsp Olive oil
1 tsp Cajun seasoning
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tbsp Fresh parsley
1 tsp Lemon juice
PREPARATION
In a small saucepan, bring the water and sea salt to a boil. Slowly whisk in the grits, then reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until 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 large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the diced bell pepper, onion, and celery. Sauté for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are softened and slightly browned.
Push the vegetables to the side of the skillet and add the seasoned shrimp. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the shrimp are pink and opaque.
Remove the grits from the heat and stir in the Greek yogurt until smooth and creamy.
Divide the creamy grits into a bowl and top with the sautéed vegetables and Cajun shrimp.
Garnish with fresh parsley and a squeeze of lemon juice before serving.
