Grilled Andouille Sausage And Shrimp Over Grilled Grits Recipes

Steps:

• Bring water and 2 teaspoons salt to a boil in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Whisk grits into the boiling water, and then whisk in half-and-half. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until grits are thickened and tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Set aside and keep warm.
• Sprinkle shrimp with salt and cayenne pepper to taste. Add lemon juice, toss to combine, and set aside to marinate.
• Place sausage slices in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until browned, 5 to 8 minutes. Remove sausage from the skillet.
• Add bacon to the same skillet and increase heat to medium-high. Cook until evenly browned, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain, then chop or crumble when cool enough to handle. Leave bacon drippings in the skillet.
• Add bell peppers, onion, and garlic to the bacon drippings; cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 8 minutes.
• Stir cooked sausage and marinated shrimp into the skillet with the cooked vegetables. Turn off the heat and set aside.
• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour, stirring to create a smooth roux. Turn heat to low and cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is golden brown in color, 8 to 10 minutes. Watch carefully, mixture burns easily.
• Pour the roux over the sausage, shrimp, and vegetables. Place the skillet over medium heat, add chicken broth, bacon, and Worcestershire sauce, and stir to combine. Cook until sauce thickens up and shrimp turn opaque and bright pink, about 8 minutes.
• Just before serving, mix sharp Cheddar cheese into grits until melted and grits are creamy and light yellow. Serve shrimp mixture over cheese grits.

Steps:

• PROCEDURE: Prepare a grill by lighting the charcoals or heating a gas grill on medium heat. Heat the butter in a medium non-stick saute pan over high heat, add the onion and cook 1 to 2 minutes until soft but not browned. Stir in the capers, garlic puree, Creole seasoning, black and white pepper, red pepper flakes, and salt, cooking 1 minute. Whisk in the cream, mustard, horseradish, Worcestershire and hot pepper sauce. Bring to a boil and simmer for 5 minutes whisking occasionally until sauce thickens. Add in the butter whisking until completely incorporated. Set aside until needed. Reheat the sauce before serving. Slice the andouille into 36 (1/2-inch) diagonally cut slices. Place the andouille and shrimp in a medium bowl, drizzle with the oil and toss to coat. Sprinkle with the Creole seasoning, mixing to evenly distribute it among the andouille and shrimp. Alternately thread 3 pieces of andouille and 2 shrimp onto each skewer. Repeat with the remaining skewers. Turning once or twice, grill 6 to 7 minutes until shrimp turn pink and are cooked through. Serve 2 skewers per person with a portion of Hot Ravigote Sauce.

Steps:

• Combine hot pepper sauce, wine, shallot, lemon juice and vinegar in heavy medium saucepan. Boil over medium heat until reduced to 1/2 cup, about 15 minutes. Stir in 1/2 cup cream. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
• Bring 1/2 cup cream, 5 cups water, milk and butter to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in grits. Simmer until grits are very soft and thickened, stirring frequently, about 1 hour.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in heavy medium skillet over medium heat. Add sausage, both bell peppers, onion and garlic; sauté until vegetables are tender, about 8 minutes. Add shrimp, tomatoes, Cajun seasoning and Old Bay seasoning and sauté until shrimp are opaque in center, about 6 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Bring hot pepper-cream sauce to simmer. Spoon grits onto 6 plates, dividing equally. Spoon shrimp mixture over grits. Drizzle hot pepper-cream sauce over and serve.
• *Corn grits, also known as polenta, are available at Italian markets, natural foods stores and some supermarkets. If unavailable, substitute 2 cups regular yellow cornmeal, and cook about 30 minutes.
• **A smoked pork-and-beef sausage available at specialty foods stores. Smoked bratwurst, kielbasa or smoked Hungarian sausage can be substituted.

Steps:

• For the Country Bread: Combine the butter and anchovies in a food processor and process until smooth; season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the bread until lightly golden brown on both sides, about 20 seconds per side. Remove from the grill and slather some of the anchovy butter on 1 side. Cut each slice in half, while still hot.
• For the sausage and shrimp: Heat the grill to high.
• Brush the sausage with oil and grill until golden brown on both sides and just cooked through. Remove to a platter.
• In a large bowl, toss the shrimp with oil, anchovy butter, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill until slightly charred on both sides and just cooked through, about 1 1/2 minutes per side. Remove to the platter with the sausage.
• Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large stockpot on the grates of the grill or the side burner of the grill. Add the garlic and cook until lightly golden brown. Stir in the wine, clam juice and thyme, bring to a boil and cook until reduced by half. Add the clams and mussels, cover the pot and cook until all have opened, discarding any that have not opened. Remove with a slotted spoon to a large bowl. Add the sausage and shrimp to the broth and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the butter and parsley and cook for another minute. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Return the clams and mussels to the pot and cook until just warmed through, about 1 minute. Serve in large bowls with the grilled bread. Garnish with more parsley.

Steps:

• For the grits: Bring 2 cups of the chicken stock, the heavy cream and 4 tablespoons of the butter to a simmer in a heavy saucepan. Gradually whisk in the grits. Reduce the heat and simmer until the grits have thickened, 15 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to avoid lumps. Once the grits are thick and creamy, adjust the consistency with stock, if necessary, and season with salt and pepper.
• For the shrimp and sausage: Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Add the sausage and brown, then transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon, leaving all of the fat in the pan. Add the garlic, bell peppers and onions. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the shrimp and Cajun seasoning to the pan and saute until the shrimp are beginning to turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the reserved sausage and remaining 1/2 cup chicken stock to the skillet and reduce a bit to intensify those flavors. Stir in the remaining tablespoon butter at the end, garnish with parsley, and add the lemon juice.
• Serve the sausage, peppers and shrimp over the grits.

Steps:

• In a saute pan, over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in the flour and cook for 4 to 6 minutes for a medium brown roux, about the color of peanut butter. Add the onions, peppers, and celery. Season with salt and cayenne. Continue cooking until the vegetables are wilted, about 8 minutes. Add the sausage and continue to cook for 2 minutes. Season the shrimp with salt and cayenne. Add the shrimp. Stir in the clam juice and cream. Bring the liquid to a simmer and continue to cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until the mixture coats the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the green onions. To serve, spoon the grits in the center of each serving bowl. Spoon the shrimp mixture over the grits. Garnish with parsley.
• In a large saucepan, over medium heat, combine the water, milk, salt, pepper and 2 tablespoons of the butter. Bring the liquid to a gentle boil. Stir in the grits. Cook for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. (The grits will stick to the bottom of the pan, so make sure not to scrape the bottom of the pan. If the grits absorbed all of the water, add some hot water to thin out.) Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cheese. The grits can either be served immediately or prepared in advance and reheated.
• If preparing in advance, grease a pan with a teaspoon of butter. Pour the grits into the pan and reheat in a 400 degree F for 15 minutes.
