Creamy Jalapeno Cheese Grits Recipes

Steps:

• Place the milk, water, and salt into a large, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Once the milk mixture comes to a boil, gradually add the cornmeal while continually whisking. Once all of the cornmeal has been incorporated, decrease the heat to low and cover. Remove lid and whisk frequently, every 3 to 4 minutes, to prevent grits from sticking or forming lumps; make sure to get into corners of pot when whisking. Cook for 20 to 25 minutes or until mixture is creamy.
• Remove from the heat, add the pepper and butter, and whisk to combine. Once the butter is melted, gradually whisk in the cheese a little at a time. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• In a saucepot over medium-high heat, add 3 cups water and a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil, and then stir in the grits and milk. Raise the heat to bring to a boil again, and then lower to a simmer and cook for about 4 minutes. When the grits begin to thicken but there is still plenty of moisture left, add the mozzarella and Cheddar along with a few grinds of pepper. Stir to melt the cheese, taste and season with salt, if needed. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• Cook the grits according to the directions on the back of the package (usually between 5-10 minutes), whisking the whole time to avoid lumps.
• Remove from the heat and add next 6 ingredients (cheddar through chilies).
• Stir well and season with garlic salt, to taste.
• Pour into a buttered 9x9-inch baking dish and bake for 1 hour.
• Let cool slightly before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Melt butter with olive oil in medium pot.
• Add onions, garlic, and chopped jalapenos. Saute until onions are softened.
• Add chicken broth and milk; bring to a boil.
• Add grits, lower heat and stir constantly with a whisk for three to five minutes until cooked.
• Add Velveeta and pepper jack cheese. Cook until cheese is melted and well blended.
• If grits are too thick, add a little milk to loosen them up.
• Serve immediately.
