This quick and easy recipe is the perfect dish to make with the leftovers from a backyard shrimp boil.
I picked this dish because it was one that I worked to perfect; and also, one that I seduced my then-boyfriend, now-husband with when he first visited New Orleans. It’s our favorite brunch dish at a restaurant (most favorite at Atchafalaya in the Irish Channel), and a favorite dinner recipe at home. Getting ultra-fresh shrimp is the key to combine the sweetness of the shrimp, with the fattiness of the creamed grits, and the complexity of the piquant sauce.

This Creole Fritto Misto recipe by Liz WIlliams turns bycatch into bonus catch! Your seafood has never tasted so good.
This is a great, quick way to serve beautiful fresh head-on shrimp. Got someone coming over in 20 minutes? This is your go-to. Just try and dupe someone else into peeling the shrimp.
