Harbor House Shrimp & Grits

Bring the water and salt to a boil in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat. Add both the yellow and white grits and cook, stirring constantly for 3 minutes. Reduce the heat to a simmer. Add the half and half and continue to stir for 3 more minutes. Keeping the heat to a low simmer, cook the grits until desired thickness, stirring frequently. Remove the pan from the heat and keep warm.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Italian sausage and cook, stirring frequently, until browned. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter to the pan. When melted, add the garlic, bell peppers, and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are soft.

Add the shrimp and cook just until they are pink on both sides.

Sprinkle the flour evenly over the ingredients in the skillet. Stir well. Slowly add the broth while stirring. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce along with the seasonings to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add water or additional broth as needed.

Serve the shrimp and sausage mixture over the grits.
