Shrimp 'n Grits Recipe

Ingredients

How to make it

  • In a large frying pan or skillet, brown the turkey bacon and sausage on medium high for 5-7 minutes. Once the bacon is crisp and both are browned, drain meat on a paper towel. Deglaze the pan with the white wine vinegar.
  • Meanwhile, rinse and drain shrimp; pat try with a paper towel.
  • Cook your grits according to package instructions (mine say 1 cup grits to 4 cups liquid), using the chicken broth as your liquid.
  • Once the bacon & sausage have been removed, add the onion and bell pepper to the pan. Cook on medium high for about 10 minutes, or until they become translucent & slightly soft. Add in the garlic and cook about 1 more minute, then remove veggies to a bowl.
  • Melt the butter & olive oil in the pan, and whisk in the buttermilk, milk, & flour until it thickens. Stir in the lemon zest and juice; season with salt & pepper, to taste. Add in the shrimp, veggies, turkey bacon, sausage; cook about 3 minutes, or until shrimp are warmed through. Stir in the parsley.
  • Serve the shrimp gravy over the grits, top with more parsley if you want!

    nice change-up on grits. Right, traditional it's not but it should be very tasty. RJ
