Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter an 8-inch cast iron skillet.
Add the 2 tablespoons of butter to a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Once the butter foams, add the shallots and garlic and saute until tender, about 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste, then add the chicken broth, and whipping cream and bring to a simmer.
Once simmering, slowly and gradually whisk in the grits. Keep stirring until the grits become thick, about 8 to 10 minutes.
Add the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and stir until thoroughly mixed. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
Add the grits to the prepared skillet and top with the crumbled goat cheese.
Bake for about 25 to 30 minutes.
Remove the skillet from the oven and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Slice into triangles and serve.
Recommended wine: Riesling, Sparkling Wine, Zinfandel
Southern works really well with Riesling, Sparkling Wine, and Zinfandel. In general, there are a few rules that will help you pair wine with southern food. Food-friendly riesling or sparkling white wine will work with many fried foods, while zinfandel is great with barbecued fare.
#95 Wine Spectator Top 100 of 2017It’s richer and less minty than usual but I like the richness in this vintage, which can use a little gras; so anticipate a wine with more apple and less spearmint; crunchy stuff. The parcel is called Heel and it’s to the right of Anrecht, from which one of the great trio of en-bloc wines comes.
