Instructions

🎙️ Cook with voice coach

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
Season Shrimp with Paprika, Garlic Powder, and Cayenne Pepper.
Wrap each Shrimp with a slice of Bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Place Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until Bacon is crispy and Shrimp is cooked through.
While Shrimp are baking, prepare Grits. In a medium saucepan, bring Chicken Broth to a boil.
Gradually whisk in Grits and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until Grits are creamy.
Stir in Butter and Cheddar Cheese until melted and smooth. Season with Salt and Pepper to taste.
Serve Bacon-Wrapped Shrimp over creamy Grits.
