Chef John's Shrimp and Grits
Shrimp and grits are very simple to make for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and this recipe is a snap. You can make the grits a bit ahead since they stay hot for a long time. Have everything ready before you start cooking the shrimp as they only take a few minutes to sauté.
