I'll have to try this, I've never done anything but fix grits plain. We like them with butter, sometimes with stewed tomatoes over them, and of course for breakfast with eggs.


This is "done-up" grits like I have never seen before in my life!! :) Oh, me! love that thyme and that SMOKED paprika!! Girl, this is some kind of grits!! That's all I can say! :)


HELP! Hear ye, hear ye, I love grits, love, love the recipe, am going to make it as soon as possible! I rated it a 5 and it popped it and said I had "already" rated the dish a 1!! I never had even rated it!! HELP! THIS IS A FABULOUS RECIPE!


Love this type of grits. Has lots of flavor.


Good recipe. I do a similar version, but use cream instead of chicken stock. And if you can find them stone ground grits are great, but never instant grits.


Great post, Linebb; Deserves a far better rating than it has right now :) (Bumpity-bumpsy... :)


Made this for Christmas brunch and substituted quick grits with broth and grit amounts and time adjusted. Out of our group of 14 everyone loved these grits, even the four people who never liked grits before. We roasted our pepper, too. We give it 14 "thumbs up".


There's not a lot of grits in So. Calif. so when I travel and get near a Cracker Barrel restaurant, I make sure I go there for breakfast...for their grits with butter, salt and lots of pepper! Bookmarking this one.


I absolutely love grits and jalapeno - this is going to be great!
