Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 lbs shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon Old Bay Seasoning (optional)
3 cups water
1 cup quick-cooking grits
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
4 ounces cheddar cheese, shredded
2 teaspoons red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Boil shrimp. Use Old Bay seasoning in water to add additional flavor. 3-5 minutes in boiling water is usually plenty of time. Overcooking makes them tough. Set shrimp aside.

  • Add remaining ingredients to grits and stir to melt cheese.
  • Dish grits into individual bowls and top with shrimp.

SHRIMP & CHEESY GRITS



Shrimp & Cheesy Grits image

This is a favorite recipe around my house. I found it originally on foodtv.com as one of Emeril's recipes. It's definitely more of a winter dish as it's filling and comforting. You may use vegetable stock but if you can use shrimp stock or seafood base dissolved in water.

  • Place the pan back over the heat and flame the sherry, (optional- I'm chicken so I just allow it to boil for a minute) shaking the pan back and forth several times until the flame dies out.
  • Remove the shrimp from the pan and set aside.
  • Add the stock and bring the liquid to a boil.
  • Reduce the heat to medium low and mound in the butter.
  • Add the shrimp back to the sauce and simmer for 2 minutes.

  • To serve, spoon the grits in the center of each shallow bowl.

  • **Note:For shrimp stock, when I fix boiled shrimp I save the liquid for this recipe.

CHEF JOHN'S SHRIMP AND GRITS



Chef John's Shrimp and Grits image

Shrimp and grits is a very simple recipe, but make sure you have everything ready before you start cooking the shrimp. They only take a few minutes to sauté, so you don't have time to run and chop scallions or juice a lemon. Once everything is assembled, this recipe is a snap. To make things even easier, you can make the grits a bit ahead since they stay hot a very long time.

¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon minced jalapeno pepper
2 tablespoons minced green onion
3 cloves garlic, minced
