Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

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

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9×12-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, 3/4 cup Cheddar cheese, and black pepper into grits; pour into the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven until cheese is bubbly and beginning to brown, 30 to 45 minutes.
