Steps:
- To make grits, bring water, milk, and salt to a boil in a medium saucepan.
- Gradually whisk in grits so that they do not clump. Turn heat to low and cook according to package directions (probably a good 45 minutes for stone-ground or shorter for quick grits.) Stir frequently to prevent the grits from scorching on the bottom of the pan. If grits are getting too thick, you can add more water.
- Once done, turn heat off and stir in butter, cheeses, and white pepper. Keep warm.
- To make shrimp, cook bacon in a large skillet. Remove bacon and set aside. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon fat.
- Saute mushrooms and red pepper in the bacon fat for 2-3 minutes. Add shrimp, garlic, white parts of green onion, and thyme. Cook until shrimp are pink. Season with salt and pepper.
- Add chicken broth, cream, lemon juice, and tabasco. Simmer for 2-3 minutes. Add green parts of green onion and bacon.
- To serve, scoop grits onto a plate or bowl and top with shrimp mixture.

Steps:
- For the grits: Bring 2 cups of the chicken stock, the heavy cream and 4 tablespoons of the butter to a simmer in a heavy saucepan. Gradually whisk in the grits. Reduce the heat and simmer until the grits have thickened, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid lumps. Once the grits are thick and creamy, adjust the consistency with stock, if necessary, and season with salt and pepper.
- For the shrimp and sausage: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the sausage and brown, then transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon, leaving all of the fat in the pan. Add the garlic, bell peppers and onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the shrimp and Cajun seasoning to the pan and saute until the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the reserved sausage and remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock to the skillet and reduce a bit to intensify those flavors. Stir in the remaining tablespoon butter at the end, garnish with parsley, and add the lemon juice.
- Serve the sausage, peppers and shrimp over the 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
