HEAVENLY SHRIMP & PARMESAN GRITS



Heavenly Shrimp & Parmesan Grits image

For my mom's birthday this year I wanted to make something special for her. After searching tons of cookbooks for the "just right" combination of shrimp and grits I have developed this concoction with the help of the Tabasco cookbook and the Best of Bayou Cuisine. Happy Birthday Mom!

Provided by Christy Luster

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 50m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups chicken broth
2 cups milk
1 cup quick-cooking grits
1 1/2 cups parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined (I use the 26-30 count)
salt and pepper
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
4 tablespoons white wine
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup sliced scallion

Steps:

  • Parmesan Grits:.
  • Bring milk and broth to a boil.
  • (WATCH THIS VERY CAREFULLY BECAUSE THE MILK WILL OVERFLOW IF IT GETS TOO HOT).
  • Add grits and cook according to package directions.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the cheese and the Tabasco.
  • (If you prefer firmer grits: Add to the above 1 cup milk, and 2 large beaten eggs; then bake for at 350 for 30 minutes).
  • Shrimp:.
  • Heat large skillet until very hot, add olive oil.
  • When oil is thoroughly heated, toss in shrimp to cover bottom of pan.
  • Before stirring, season with salt and pepper (this will season shrimp in particular, but the rest of the dish as well).
  • Stir until shrimp begin to turn pink all over (let pan return original hot temperature).
  • Stir in minced garlic and mushrooms.
  • Add lemon juice and wine, stir for 30 seconds or until everything is well coated.
  • Toss in sliced scallions and stir for about 20 seconds.
  • Serve over grits!

Tips:

  • Use fresh shrimp: Fresh shrimp have a sweeter, more delicate flavor than frozen shrimp. If using frozen shrimp, thaw them completely before cooking.
  • Season the shrimp well: Before cooking, season the shrimp with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Cook the shrimp properly: Shrimp cook quickly, so it's important to not overcook them. Cook the shrimp for just a few minutes per side, or until they are pink and opaque.
  • Use a good quality Parmesan cheese: The Parmesan cheese is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese. Look for a Parmesan cheese that is aged for at least 12 months.
  • Serve the shrimp immediately: Shrimp is best served immediately after cooking. This will help to ensure that they are hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Shrimp Parmesan is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It can be served as an appetizer, main course, or even a snack. With its crispy shrimp, melted Parmesan cheese, and flavorful sauce, Shrimp Parmesan is sure to please everyone at the table.
