Old-fashioned Baked Cheese Grits Recipe

Old-fashioned baked cheese grits

From jaie 16 years ago

Old-fasioned grits are worth the extra cooking time. These are super cheesey and go perfectly with chicken.

Adjust oven rack to lower-middl position.
Heat oven to 350°.
Grease an 11x7-inch baking dish with butter, start with 1 teaspoon.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat 2 tablespoons butter until foaming subsides.
Add onion and cook until softened, about 4 minutes.
Add water, cream, hot sauce and salt.
Bring to a boil.
Whisk in grits and reduce heat to low.
Cook, stirring frequently, until thick and creamy. About 15 minutes.
Remove from heat and stir in 1-1/2 cups cheese, egg and pepper to taste.
Pour mixture into greased baking dish and smooth the top with a rubber spatula.
Bake for 30 minutes.
Sprinkle with remaining cheese and continue baking until top is browned, about 15 minutes.
Let rest 5 minutes and serve.
