Amazing! I adhered to all the directions and ingredients, except I added a little more lemon juice and some white wine to the sautéed mixture. So easy, quick, and delicious! I will definitely be making this again!

Excellent, tasty recipe! Unfortunately, I could not find stone ground grits so I settled for quick cooking grits. To make up for that, I used shrimp stock instead of water in the grfits. I used the shrimp shells to make a stock. It was well worth the time. This is certainly a keeper recipe.

Absolutely delicious! I used chicken broth, instead of water, to add depth and a dash of creme fraiche to the grits but followed the rest of the recipe exactly. Definite keeper!

I thought this was a really great, basic recipe. I made it my own by altering it a bit ... First, I made the grits with chicken stock instead of water, and then I added a splash of cream before I added the cheese. They were, honestly, the best grits I have ever eaten. I cooked and drained the bacon and, in the grease, I sautéed onion, bell pepper, and mushroom before adding the shrimp. Then I added the garlic and lemon juice. After cooking for a minute, I removed everything from the pan and added a bit of flour and half and half to make a cream sauce. Finally, I mixed the veggies and shrimp into the cream sauce and served it over the grits. It turned out GREAT!! My husband, who has eaten at many places throughout the south, had two plates and even had it for breakfast the next morning. In my house, that is the best kind of compliment when it comes to cooking!! I thought this was a good recipe that allowed me the opportunity to play with it a little.

I'm not sure what motivated me to make this tonight - I'm really not a huge fan of grits, but I did have everything on hand - including some local stone ground grits that I preferred not to waste. Wow! This recipe is simply excellent and amazingly easy. I was pressed for time but had dinner ready (including peeling the shrimp in under an hour. The only thing I did differently was to add a bit of cream into the grits at the end. I thought the lemon and parsley touches were especially nice. This is dinner party good!

This is a delicious and easy recipe for shrimp and grits. To give the grits more depth, I simmer the shells from the shrimp for about an hour and use this liquid with the grits instead of plain water. Yum.
