This is the traditional South Carolina breakfast staple. Yellow or white grits are your preference.Truly delicious easy and fast...especially if you peel and refrigerate the shrimp the day before.

Ingredients
- 1 cup (½ pound) peeled shrimp
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- salt and cayenne pepper to taste
- 3 tablespoons bacon grease
- 1 small onion, finely chopped (about ¼ cup)
- about ¼ cup finely chopped green bell pepper
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- Creamy Grits
- ¾ to 1 cup hot water or stock (shrimp, chicken, or vegetable)
- Make shrimp stock by boiling shells for 7 -10 minutes
Directions
- In a bowl, sprinkle the shrimp with the lemon juice, salt, and cayenne and set aside.
- Heat the bacon grease in a skillet and sauté the onion and pepper over medium heat until the onion begins to become transparent, about 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir constantly for about 2 minutes, until the flour begins to brown.
- Add the shrimp and about 3/4 cup water or stock, stirring constantly and turning the shrimp so that they cook evenly.
- Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, until the shrimp are cooked through and the gravy is uniformly smooth, thinning with a little extra water or stock if necessary.
- Serve immediately over grits.
