This looked so good to me when I watched Paula make it the other day on her show. I haven't tried it yet, but plan to soon.

Time 1h20m

Yield 48 appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 (14 ounce) cans chicken broth
1 1/3 cups quick-cooking grits
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons butter, melted
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon half-and-half
1/2 cup grated Italian cheese blend
1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/2 lb shrimp, cooked, peeled, and deveined and chopped
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Bring broth to a boil in a large saucepan. Stir in grits, and return to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 5 minutes, or until grits are thickened, stirring occasionally. Stir in Parmesan cheese and salt. Remove from heat.
  • Spoon grits into a greased 9 by 13-inch baking pan. Cover, and chill at least 2 hours, or until firm. Cut out 48 (1 1/2-inch) circles using a round or fluted cookie cutter (Paula used a clean tomato paste can as a cookie cutter).
  • Brush a large jellyroll pan with melted butter. Place grit rounds on pan. Bake for 15 minutes. Turn grits, and bake 15 minutes more. Set aside. (Up to this point, the recipe can be prepared ahead. If preparing early, cover and refrigerate grit rounds until you are ready to top with shrimp mixture.).
  • In a large bowl, combine cream cheese and half-and-half, stirring until combined. Stir in cheese, parsley, and shrimp. Top each grits round evenly with shrimp mixture. Top mixture with grated Cheddar. Broil 5 minutes, or until lightly browned and heated through.

I'm going to try this recipe again, but I'm going to make some changes.

This dish was a disaster. The grits were bland and the shrimp was rubbery.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my grits turned out lumpy.

The shrimp was a bit overcooked, but the grits were delicious.

I added some diced tomatoes and green onions to the grits and it was even better.
