Southern Shrimp & Grits Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by LRay

Number Of Ingredients 13

GRITS:
2 cups whole milk
1 cup water
2 tablespoons butter, unsalted
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup quick-cooking grits
1/4 cup sharp white cheddar or Manchego cheese, grated
SHRIMP:
1-pound wild-caught or sustainably raised shrimp, 16 to 30 count in size, shelled and de-veined
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt to taste
freshly ground black pepper to taste
juice of 1/2 lemon

Steps:

  • To make grits, combine milk, water, butter, and salt in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a roaring boil and slowly whisk in the grits. Decrease the heat to medium low. Continue whisking until no lumps remain, about 12 minutes. Decrease the heat to low. Cover the pan and let the grits simmer while preparing shrimp. To prepare shrimp, heat a medium pan over medium-high heat.Toss shrimp with oil in a small bowl and season lightly with salt and pepper. Add shrimp to hot pan and cook, stirring, until just pink throughout, 2 to 4 minutes, depending on size of shrimp. Turn off heat and squeeze lemon over the top to release all the good bits from the pan to make a light, flavorful sauce. To serve, remove grits from heat and stir in grated cheese. Divide among 4 shallow bowls and top with shrimp and pan sauce. Serve hot.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The shrimp were overcooked and the grits were bland. I think I will try a different recipe next time.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but other than that, it was pretty good. The shrimp were cooked perfectly and the grits were creamy and flavorful. I think next time I will use less Creole seasoning.
