Share:
Ingredients
- 1 lb langoustine tails UNCOOKED
- 2 cups cheddar cheese shredded, extra sharp
- ½ cup half and half
- 4 tbsp butter salted
- 1 cup organic quick grits
- 3 cups water or specified amount for 1 cup grits according to your brand's packaging
- 1 tsp salt plus more to taste, sea salt
- ¼ tsp black pepper ground
- vermouth cook grits a touch longer if adding this so it is not too runny, optional, ½ cup
- paprika to taste, optional
- garlic to taste, optional
Instructions
- Boil water to a rolling boil, add grits. Stir frequently until grits thicken slightly.
- Turn heat to low.
- Add in cheese, half and half, and butter, stir until cheese is fully melted.
- Add in langoustine tails and salt & pepper. Stir to be sure langoustine cooks evenly.
- When langoustine has just turned opaque, it is ready. Overcooked shellfish gives the fishy taste and gummy texture most people don't like. You want it to just be pink- not overcooked.
