Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 jalapeno diced
  • 1 cup stock I used roasted garlic stock
  • 1 cup milk or alt milk
  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup sliced scallions
  • 1 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 pound andouille sausage diced
  • 1/2 pound frozen shrimp cleaned and devined
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika

  • 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon celery salt
  • pinch cayenne
  • juice of one lemon
  • 1/4 cup white wine
  • large tortillas
  • tortilla chips

Instructions

  • In a sauce pot, melt the butter and add the jalapenos. Cook a few minutes to soften. Add in the stock and milk and bring to a simmer. Whisk in the cornmeal.
  • Simmer on low, stirring often until cooked, about 20 minutes. Stir in cheese and scallions and remove from heat. Add a little butter if it seems too thick.
  • Cook the andouille in the butter over medium high heat in a frying pan until lightly browning. Add in the shrimp and cook 1 minute. Add in the garlic and cook 2 more minutes. Add in the spices, lemon and wine and cook another 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Build the wraps starting with the grits, then some shrimp with its juices, then a layer of chips, then more grits. Wrap it up in a circle (like a crunchwrap)
  • Grill in a pan with a little butter. First on the crease side, then on the other side. Serve.
