HEALTHY SHRIMP AND "GRITS" (WHOLE30, KETO, PALEO)



Healthy Shrimp and

Spicy, tender shrimp in a rich, simple sauce over garlicky, creamy cauliflower "grits." What could be better? Whole30, keto, low carb, paleo.

Provided by Cheryl Malik

Categories     Main Course

Time 12m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
2-3 tablespoons Cajun seasoning (without salt)
salt
2 tablespoons ghee or butter
1 12-ounce bag frozen cauliflower
1 large clove garlic, (chopped)
2 tablespoons ghee or butter
salt, (to taste)

Steps:

  • Fill a medium saucepan with a couple of inches of water and bring to a boil. Place the frozen cauliflower in a steamer basket and top with 1 large clove garlic, chopped. Cover and steam until tender.
  • When tender, place the steamed cauliflower and garlic in the bowl of a food processor and add ghee or butter. Do not get rid of the steaming water! Blitz until almost the desired texture. Add salt and a bit of the steaming water, if desired, and process again until the desired consistency.
  • Meanwhile, make your shrimp. Pat dry and sprinkle very liberally with Cajun seasoning. You want the shrimp to be almost entirely coated, so don't skimp out here! We probably use about 2-3 tablespoons of seasoning. If your Cajun seasoning does not include salt, salt the shrimp now as well.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons ghee or butter in a large skillet, preferably cast-iron, over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is very hot, add the shrimp and cook for a minute or two, or until the bottom side begins turning pink. Flip the shrimp and cook until the bottom side is turning pink. When the shrimp are no longer translucent down the middle, where they've been deveined, remove from the skillet immediately.
  • Spoon the cauliflower "grits" into serving bowls and top with half of the shrimp. Pour the ghee and Cajun seasoning "sauce" from the cast-iron skillet over serving bowls. Serve immediately.

  • Start off by grating the cauliflower on the largest setting of a box grater or by using the grater attachment of the food processor. The texture is much better than buying pre-made riced cauliflower from the store. Preheat a wide pot or pan with high sides over medium heat with 2 tablespoons of oil. Add the onions, ½ teaspoon salt, a couple cracks of pepper, and cook for 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook another 3-4 minutes until the onions are soft. Add the riced cauliflower along with ½ teaspoon of salt, a few cracks of pepper, and mx well. Cook for 8-10 minutes so some of the moisture from the cauliflower can cook off.
  • Meanwhile, pat the moisture off the shrimp using a couple layers of paper towels, it’s important they are dry. Season the shrimp with 2 teaspoons of oil, smoked paprika, onion and garlic powder, and mix well. Let sit at room temperature while you proceed with the grits.
  • Add the veggie stock and coconut milk, mix well and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce to a low simmer and cook for 25 minutes with the lid off, stirring often. Check for seasoning after 15 minutes, you will need more salt, but not too much because the cheese is salty. After 25 minutes, turn the heat off and add the grated cheese, parsley, and mix well. Check for seasoning and adjust if needed. Cover the grits and set aside.
  • To cook the shrimp, preheat a large pan, preferably cast iron, just above medium-high heat for 3 minutes. Meanwhile, season the shrimp with ¾ teaspoon of salt and mix well. Add 3 tablespoons of ghee to the pan, once it begins to smoke a bit, add half the shrimp to the pan and spread it out in one even layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until deep golden brown, flip, and cook 1 minute more. Shrimp cook incredibly quickly. Remove from pan, add more ghee if needed, and cook the second batch. Once all shrimp are cooked, spoon a bit of ghee over them and mix well so they stay juicy, you can use the leftover ghee as a sauce.

  • Add cauliflower into a food processor and pulse until the florets break down into fine pieces. You want it to be smaller than the size than cauliflower rice, about the size of regular grits and it's okay if it clumps together. This step might be easier done in two batches, depending on the size of your food processor.
  • Add 1 Tablespoon butter to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Transfer to a medium saucepan, pulse the remaining cauliflower and add that to the pan too. Add milk, 1 tablespoon of the butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Simmer, stirring frequently, until the mixture is soft and smooth and looks like grits, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the Parmesan and taste. Add more salt and pepper if you'd like. Cover and keep warm.
  • Melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp, blackened seasoning and toss until the shrimp are pink and just cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, add the parsley, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon water and stir to coat the shrimp with the sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
