Cajun Shrimp
- 1 pound deveined, peeled shrimp
- 1/2 tablespoon minced garlic
- 1/2 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/8 teaspoon red pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
Instructions
In a medium to large size stock pan add the cauliflower florets and chicken broth simmer over medium to medium high heat until they are tender.
Once the cauliflower is tender, drain off the remaining broth and add cream cheese, cheddar cheese, butter, salt and pepper and mash until it resembles the texture of grits. Cover the grits to keep warm while you make the shrimp.
To cook the shrimp heat a large skillet to medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter, add garlic and the raw, shelled shrimp to the skillet and sprinkle the cajun spices over the shrimp. Stir well so it is evenly coated.
Cook the shrimp 3-4 minutes and when it is pink and tender add the butter and heavy cream to the skillet and stir to form the creamy sauce.
To assemble your shrimp and grits divide the cauliflower grits evenly among four bowls, top with shrimp, green onions and drizzle of the cream sauce.
