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!

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!

This is my new favorite shrimp and grits recipe! It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The shrimp is cooked perfectly and the grits are creamy and cheesy. I love the addition of the Parmesan cheese and bread crumbs.

This dish was a bit too rich for my taste. I would recommend using less butter and cheese. Otherwise, the dish was very good. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the grits were creamy.

This recipe was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better. The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the grits were creamy, but I would have liked more flavor.
