Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 23

8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, cut into pieces
2 teaspoons anchovy paste or 3 anchovy fillets, patted dry
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped to a paste
1 cup panko breadcrumbs
2 green onions, green and light green parts only, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons canola oil
3/4 pound thick-cut bacon, cut into lardon
1 1/2 cups rice flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground ancho powder
1/2 teaspoon chile de arbol powder
1 pound large shrimp (21/24), peeled and deveined
Two 15-ounce cans hominy, drained, rinsed well and drained again
2 cups heavy cream
2 to 3 cups shrimp stock, crab stock or vegetable stock
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup grated aged Irish Cheddar or other good quality aged Cheddar
Pinch cayenne
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the breadcrumbs: Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the anchovy paste and cook for 30 seconds. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
  • Stir in the breadcrumbs and cook until lightly golden brown. Stir in the green onions, parsley and thyme and season with salt and pepper.
  • For the shrimp: Heat the oil in a large saute pan over medium heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the bacon and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 7 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels and reserve. Reserve the pan with the oil to cook the shrimp.
  • Whisk together the rice flour and 1 1/4 cups water in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Let rest for 5 minutes. Combine the cumin, ancho powder, chile de arbol, 2 teaspoons salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl. Season the shrimp on both sides with the spice mixture.
  • Return the pan with the bacon fat to the burner and heat over high heat until it begins to shimmer. Dip the shrimp in the batter and let the excess drip off. Saute the shrimp in batches until lightly golden brown and just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes per side.
  • For the grits: Put the hominy in a food processor with 1 cup of the cream and pulse until coarsely chopped.
  • Bring 2 cups of the shrimp stock to a simmer in a medium saucepan, add the hominy mixture and stir to combine. Cook until soft, about 5 minutes, adding more stock if needed. Add the Monterey Jack, Cheddar and the remaining cup of cream and cook until incorporated, about 2 minutes; season with the cayenne, salt and pepper.
  • Spoon the grits into bowls. Top each with 5 shrimp for an entree portion or 3 shrimp for an appetizer. Sprinkle with the breadcrumbs and garnish with the reserved bacon.

Categories     dinner, project, main course

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 pound whole dried corn (hominy)
Water
1 tablespoon ground dried red chilies or salt-free chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Pinch of cinnamon
2 cups chicken stock

Bring to a simmer and stir in the dried chilies or chili powder, oregano and cinnamon. Simmer uncovered about two and a half hours, until the corn is fairly tender.
