cooking 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded, finely chopped 2 garlic cloves, minced 1-1/2 teaspoons salt, divided Freshly ground black pepper, to taste 2 cups heavy cream 2 (14-1/2-ounce) cans diced tomatoes* 2 pounds large shrimp, peeled, deveined Tabasco or other hot sauce, to taste 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, for garnish 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish To make the grits, combine 4 cups water, milk and salt in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring the mixture to a boil and slowly whisk in the grits. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the saucepan and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes, or until thickened. Stir in the cheddar cheese. Cover and keep warm over a low heat. To make the shrimp, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add flour and cook, stirring until the mixture is dark and golden, about 5 minutes. Add bell peppers, onions, jalapenos, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Slowly whisk in the cream. Once cream is fully incorporated, slowly whisk in the tomatoes and 2/3 cup water. Stir in shrimp and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are just opaque, about 5 minutes. Season shrimp with the remaining salt, pepper and Tabasco. Serve shrimp over the grits and garnish with Parmesan cheese and parsley. *Note: If you can find canned Ro-Tel tomatoes (diced tomatoes with chilies), you can use those and leave out the jalapenos. Serves 4-6. —From “The Deen Bros. Take It Easy” by Jamie and Bobby Dean and Melissa Clark © 2009; used with permission of Ballantine Books According to officials at the Kingsland Convention and Visitors Bureau, their secret to great fried catfish, found at the Annual Labor Day Catfish Festival in downtown Kingsland, is to cook the fish at just the right temperature to seal in the moisture and flavor. Held every Labor Day weekend, this year Sept. 4-6, festival-goers are treated to crispy Southern-fried catfish, country music, parades, entertainment, kids’ activities, crafts, shopping and more. For Quick jambalaya BY NANCY H. CROSBY, RD O ver the years I have tried dozens of jambalaya recipes, most requiring considerable time and effort to prepare, but this quick recipe is the best I have ever tasted! It can be put together in just a few minutes and on the table in less than 30 minutes. Hearty enough for the biggest appetites, it’s a meal in one dish. Try it, you won’t be disappointed.
