This spicy shrimp and grits recipe is quick and easy! It's loved by the whole family — and is a constant favorite in my house!

Ingredients

4 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup quick-cooking grits
2 tablespoons margarine
1 bunch green onions, chopped
1 green bell pepper, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 pound peeled and deveined small shrimp
1 (10 ounce) can diced tomatoes and green chilies
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided
½ teaspoon black pepper

Description

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Bring chicken broth and salt to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat. Stir in grits, return to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low; continue cooking for 20 minutes, stirring frequently.
Meanwhile, melt margarine in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in green onions, bell pepper, and garlic; cook until peppers have softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in shrimp; cook until they begin to firm.
Stir shrimp mixture, tomatoes, Monterey Jack cheese, ¾ cup Cheddar cheese, and black pepper into grits; pour into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining ¼ cup Cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown, 30 to 45 minutes.
