Best 3 Andouille And White Cheddar Cheese Grits Recipes

SOUTHWEST CHEESE GRITS

Steps:

• In a large pan, combine 3 1/2 cups of water, the butter, jalapenos, garlic powder, salt, and cayenne pepper and bring it to a boil. Add the grits and stir. Reduce the heat to medium and continue stirring until the grits start to thicken. Add the sour cream, half of the Cheddar, and half of the Monterey jack and stir until creamy.
• Preheat the oven broiler.
• In a small skillet, add the remaining 1/4 cup water, green peppers, onions, and pimentos and cook over high heat until tender. Pour the grits mixture into a large flameproof casserole dish and top it with the cooked vegetables and ham. Add the remaining cheese on top and broil in the oven until the cheese is melted. Garnish each serving with scallions and tomatoes and serve immediately.

WHITE-CHEDDAR GRITS

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in a medium pot. Whisking constantly, slowly add grits to water and cook until mixture starts to thicken, about 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer gently, stirring occasionally, until grits are smooth, thick, and fall easily from the spoon, about 25 minutes.
• Add cheese, salt, and cayenne, and stir just until cheese melts. Serve immediately, or cover and keep grits warm over low heat, stirring occasionally, for up to 1 hour (you may need to adjust the consistency with additional water just before serving).

ANDOUILLE GRITS

Steps:

• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add sausage and sauté until brown, about 3 minutes. Add 3 3/4 cups broth and bring to boil. Gradually whisk in grits. Reduce heat to medium and simmer until mixture is thick, stirring occasionally, about 8 minutes. Mix in more broth by 1/4 cupfuls to thin, if desired. Stir in remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Season grits to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
