Categories     Shellfish     Appetizer     Sauté     Quick & Easy

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 lb peeled raw shrimp
1T finely chopped onion
2 scallions, sliced
2C chopped fresh spinach
1t olive oil
2T butter
1 oz chopped ham
1/2 c instant grits
3/4 c chicken stock
3/4 c lowfat milk
1/2 c water
1 oz grated smoked gouda

Steps:

  • Bring chicken stock, milk and water to a boil. Add grits, stir, lower and simmer covered until done. Add gouda and stir. If grits are thicker than desired, thin with a little water or milk. Heat olive oil and sauté onion and ham until ham is crispy. Add shrimp and sauté until shrimp is done, turning once. Remove all from pan. Melt butter and sauté scallions and spinach until spinach is wilted. Return shrimp mixture to pan and toss together. Serve with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish.
  • Don't overcook the shrimp. Overcooked shrimp will become tough and chewy.
  • Be generous with the cheese. Gouda is a flavorful cheese that will add a lot of richness to the grits.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot to cook the grits. This will help to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • Stir the grits frequently. This will help to prevent them from clumping together.
  • Season the grits to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other spices to your taste.
  • Serve the grits immediately. They are best when they are hot and creamy.

Conclusion:

Shrimp and Gouda grits are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. They are creamy, cheesy, and packed with flavor. Whether you are serving them for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, these grits are sure to be a hit. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy grits, give this recipe a try.
