Preparation
Step 1
In a medium sauce pan over high heat, bring the water, milk, Old Bay seasoning and pepper to a boil, turn down the heat to simmer and slowly add the grits while whisking to prevent lumps. Cover and cook for approximately 15 minutes, whisking every 5 minutes or so, stir in cream cheese until melted and then add the parmesan and the cheddar until well combined and melted, take off heat, cover and keep warm.
Shrimp
In a large sauce pan over medium heat, melt the butter and olive oil, add the shallots and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the wine, shrimp, cayenne pepper and pinch of salt and pepper and cook both sides until it turns pink, about 4 minutes. Add the green onions and finish with the lemon juice.
Serve the grits into bowl and spoon the shrimp over the top and enjoy!
