Shrimp o’ Polenta(y)! (ba dum kish)
I’m on this (really poorly executed) attempt to diet, which of course, gives me lots and lots of random food cravings (I’ve been resisting the call of a reuben sammich with fries for a little over a week now). Yesterday around 11pm, I suddenly decided I wanted GRITS! Not like, grits with gravy’n'biscuits, but when I went up to Boston with my friend Cynthia to visit a friend of ours, he took us to a Legal Seafoods and they had this fish thing over cheesy grits, which I thought was mm-mm-good, particularly because for whatever strange reason cooked fish tends to give me indigestion, so I generally avoid it, but there was no suffering involved that time =P
Anyway, since I wasn’t going to risk more fish-fish, I googled around until I found a recipe that seemed to have what I was looking for (aka, cheddar grits with some other kind of meatstuffs), and ended up with this recipe. However, since I was missing like half the ingredients (and am lacking in reading comprehension), the “recipe” I ended up using is vastly different from the original source. Also, since we didn’t actually have any grits, I used finely ground corn meal instead for a polenta.
