Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup stone-ground grits
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
6 ounces sharp cheddar, grated (1 1/2 cups)
6 ounces andouille sausage, sliced 1/4 inch thick
12 ounces large peeled, deveined shrimp (about 16)

1 small onion, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices (1 cup)
1 cup halved cherry tomatoes
Fried eggs, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Stir grits into 4 cups salted boiling water. Reduce heat to medium; cook, stirring, until thickened, 10 minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in 2 tablespoons butter and cheese; season to taste.
  • Cook sausage in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until browned, 6 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Add 1 tablespoon butter and shrimp to skillet; season to taste. Cook until just opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in lemon juice and hot sauce; transfer to another plate.
