Comment préparer Low Country Shrimp And Grits

**Prepare the Grits:** In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water and 1 cup of heavy cream to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
**Whisk in Grits:** Gradually whisk in 1 cup of coarse ground grits, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low.
**Cook the Grits:** Place 2 tablespoons of butter on top of the grits. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 25-30 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking and ensure creamy consistency.
**Sauté Aromatics:** While the grits cook, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 minced cloves of garlic, 1/2 chopped yellow onion, and 2 thinly sliced green onions. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
**Add Tomato:** Add 1 diced medium tomato, salt, and pepper to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes more.
**Cook the Shrimp:** Add 1 pound of peeled and deveined shrimp to the skillet. Pour 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, 1 teaspoon of paprika, and 1/4 cup of chopped fresh parsley over the shrimp.
**Simmer in Cream:** Cook the shrimp until pink and opaque, about 3-5 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1-2 tablespoons of hot sauce. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
**Serve:** Spoon the creamy grits onto plates and top with the flavorful shrimp and sauce. Garnish with extra parsley, if desired.
