Went to visit family in Mobile this past weekend, so I had to bring up fresh gulf shrimp.
Start boil 3 cups of water and 1 cup half and half, sprinkle of salt, and 1 teaspoon crab boil
Add 1 cup stone ground grits and cook for 15ish minutes, stirring occasionally
Cook 6 strips of bacon-diced
Remove bacon from pan
Cook shrimp in bacon drippings with Cajun seasoning
Remove shrimp and add 1/2 cup chopped onion, cook until soft
Add 3 tablespoons corn starch and stir until mixed with bacon drippings and onion
Add 1 1/2 chicken stock and stir until mixed
Add 1 cup half and half and stir til mixed
Bring to a simmer and add shrimp, along with 1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
Sauce should be thick so cut off the heat
Mix 2 tablespoons butter and 1 cup cheddar cheese into grits and mix
Serve shrimp mixture over grits with bacon and green onions to top
