Ingredients

For the shrimp & sauce:

2 cups chopped bacon, cooked and chopped

3 T olive oil

1 ½ lbs shrimp

salt/pepper to taste

3 t minced garlic

3 cups slice white mushrooms

3 T white wine

2 T lemon juice

2 cups chopped scallions

For the smoked gouda grits:

6 cups chicken broth

2 cups milk

1/2 t pepper

garlic to taste (I usually use roasted garlic)

2 cups uncooked quick cooking grits

1 2/3 cups shredded smoked Gouda cheese (a 7 oz. wheel is about right)

3 T butter

Red pepper to taste

Louisiana hot sauce to taste

Directions

For the grits:

Bring first 4 ingredients to a boil in a medium saucepan

Gradually whisk in grits and red pepper. DO NOT ADD ANY SALT.

Cover, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes or until thickened (I cook them longer because I like them a little thicker).

Add cheese, butter, and hot sauce, stirring until melted.

For the shrimp & sauce:

Heat a large skillet until very hot and add olive oil and two tablespoons of bacon grease.

As the oil begins to smoke, toss in shrimp.

Stir shrimp until it begins to turn pink.

Stir in minced garlic and bacon bits.

Toss in mushrooms.

Add lemon juice and wine, stir to about 30 seconds until all is covered well.

Toss in scallions and cook until done.

Serve shrimp over cheese grits.

I have made this but we call it Grits a YaYa, created by a local chef. You can look it up on the web and it is very similar to this. It is so fabulous!
