Instructions *** 2-2-15 great, i didn't get much of the bourbon flavor but the flames were neat!!! *** Recipe courtesy of Alton Brown Total Time: 1 hr 10 min Prep: 35 min Cook: 35 min Yield:4 servings Ingredients For the grits: 2 cups whole milk 2 cups water 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt 1 cup grits or coarse ground cornmeal 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 4 tablespoons unsalted butter 4 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated For the shrimp: 1 pound (31/35 count) shrimp, peeled and deveined 2 ounces bourbon whiskey 1/4 teaspoon hot sauce, optional Kosher salt Freshly ground black pepper Directions For the grits: Bring the milk, water, and salt to a boil in a 4-quart saucepan, set over medium-high heat. While continually whisking, gradually add the grits. Turn the heat to low and cover. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes or until thick and creamy, removing the lid and whisking every 3 to 4 minutes to prevent the grits from sticking or forming lumps. Remove from the heat, add the pepper and butter, and whisk to combine. Once the butter is melted, gradually stir in the cheese. Cover and set aside until the shrimp is ready. For the shrimp: Place a 10-inch non-stick saute pan over medium heat for 2 minutes. Add the shrimp to the pan and toss once or twice. Remove the pan from the heat. Gently pour the whiskey into the pan, carefully ignite with a long match or stick lighter, and return to the heat. Toss continually until the flame extinguishes, approximately 1 to 2 minutes. Saute until the shrimp are cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more. Season with hot sauce and salt and pepper if desired. Serve over warm grits.
