Greetings!

 

There is nothing like hot grits on a cool winter morning and this month Quita has a way to make them great. Also, it's time to start planing for St. Patrick's Day again. The Parade will be on Saturday, March 16th this year.
CREAMY BAKED GRITS
With Sun-Dried Tomatoes
 
Grits
A Cool Weather Favorite

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/4 cups low-salt chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • 1/2-cup quick-cooking hominy grits 
  • 3/4 cup whipping cream
  • 1/2 cup diced drained oil-packed sun-dried tomatoes 
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 1 cup crumbled soft fresh goat cheese
  • Chopped fresh chives (optional)
 

Directions:  

    Preheat oven to 350 F. Generously butter 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Bring broth, 2 tablespoons butter, and garlic to boil in heavy medium saucepan. Gradually whisk in grits and return mixture to boil, whisking occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until grits are thick and almost all broth is absorbed, whisking frequently, about 8 minutes. Whisk in 1/2-cup cream and simmer 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. Whisk in remaining 1/4 cup cream and simmer until very thick, stirring often, about 5 minutes longer. Stir in tomatoes and thyme. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour into prepared dish. Sprinkle goat cheese over. Bake until cheese softens, about 15 minutes. Garnish with chives, if desired, and serve immediately.

     

    Makes 6 side-dish servings.
