How to Make Shrimp and Grits
Instructions
- In a saucepan, bring water to a boil. Slowly whisk in the grits and reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring often, until thickened (about 20-25 minutes).
- Season cooked grits with salt, pepper, and cheddar cheese. Stir until the cheese is melted, then cover and keep warm.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and cook until they turn pink, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute.
- Pour in chicken broth and heavy cream. Bring to a simmer and let it reduce for 3-4 minutes.
- Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet, add cayenne pepper (if desired), and stir until heated through.
- Serve the shrimp and sauce over a generous scoop of cheesy grits.
- Garnish with chopped green onions, bacon bits (if using), and lemon slices.
- Enjoy your homemade Shrimp and Grits!
