Step 1: Preparing the Grits
In a medium saucepan, bring 960ml (4 cups) of water to a boil over high heat. Slowly whisk in 240g (1 cup) of grits and 5g (1 tsp) of salt, ensuring they are well combined without clumps. Reduce the heat to low, and cover the pan. Let the grits simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 20 minutes or until they are creamy and thickened.
Step 2: Adding the Cheese and Jalapeños
Once the grits have reached the desired consistency, remove them from heat. Stir in 30g (2 tbsp) of unsalted butter, followed by 120g (1 cup) of shredded cheddar cheese until fully melted. Add the diced jalapeños and mix well. If you prefer less heat, you can adjust the amount of jalapeños to taste.
Step 3: Final Touches
Pour in 120ml (1/2 cup) of milk to achieve your preferred consistency; the grits should be rich and creamy. Stir in 2g (1/2 tsp) of garlic powder if using, and season with ground black pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning as needed and return to low heat for an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Congratulations! You have just crafted a delightful Southern-inspired dish with a bold twist. These Grits with Cheddar and Jalapeños offer a perfect blend of comfort and spice. Enjoy them as a standalone dish or pair them with grilled shrimp, fried chicken, or bacon for an unforgettable meal. The beautiful thing about this recipe is its versatility, so feel free to experiment and make it uniquely yours. Bon Appétit!
