We often serve this Carolina Low Country favorite at our family's restaurant, Fresh House, in Albermarle, North Carolina, says Robin Hinson. I've scaled our jumbo-sized version of the recipe down to feed a family.
Ingredients:
4 cups water
1 tablespoon chicken base or chicken bouillon granules
1 cup uncooked old-fashioned grits
1/2 pound cooked small shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, cubed
4-1/2 tablespoons butter, cubed
1/4 cup minced chives
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, bring water and chicken base to a boil. Slowly stir in grits. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 5-7 minutes or until thickened. Stir in the remaining ingredients until blended and heated through. Yield: 6 servings.
