Cajun Shrimp And Grits With A Creamy Tomato Sauce Recipes
CAJUN SHRIMP AND GRITS WITH A CREAMY TOMATO SAUCE
Steps:
- Add 1/4 cup of heavy cream and broth/water to a pot and whisk together until combined. Heat on medium heat until liquid begins to boil.
- Pour in grits and seasonings and let the pot begin to boil again.
- Turn the heat down to a simmer, cover, and let the grits cook for about 8-10 minutes until all liquid is absorbed. Feel free to add any additional seasonings/cheese to your taste preference.
- While the grits are cooking, take a large saucepan/skillet and add the garlic cloves, red pepper flakes, olive oil, and butter.
- Cook on medium heat until the garlic & peppers are fragrant. Let the butter get nice and bubbly, but don't let it brown.
- Add the tomato paste to your pan and stir with a wooden spoon until fully incorporated, for about 2 minutes.
- Pour in the seafood broth and heavy cream and cook on medium heat until the sauce is bubbly and all ingredients are fully mixed. The sauce will thicken slightly but you can add water to thin it out if you prefer that consistency.
- Peel and devein shrimp; add to the saucepan and baste them in the sauce. Cook the shrimp for about 4-5 minutes, until they turn pink. Season both the sauce & shrimp with a bit of Cajun seasoning.
- Add creamy grits to a bowl or shallow plate. Top with the cooked shrimp and the sauce. Garnish with diced tomatoes and sliced green onions. Enjoy!
CHEESY CAJUN SHRIMP AND GRITS
I was born and raised in the South. A few years ago I moved to Pennsylvania, where good Southern comfort food was hard to find. So I created these creamy, smoky Cajun shrimp and grits to remind me of home. -Kailey Thompson, Palm Bay, Florida
