Instructions
Bring chicken broth and salt to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat; add grits, and cook, stirring often, 5 minutes or until thickened.
Add butter and pepper, stirring until butter melts.
Remove from heat, and let cool 15 to 20 minutes.
Whisk milk into cooled grits; stir in baking mix until a soft dough forms. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat dough to a 1/2-inch thickness, and cut with a 2-inch round cutter.
Place biscuits on lightly greased baking sheets.
Bake at 425 for 10 minutes or until biscuits are lightly browned.
Cut 24 shrimp in half lengthwise, and set aside.
Process cream cheese, next 4 ingredients, and remaining shrimp in a food processor until mixture is smooth, stopping to scrape down sides.
Split biscuits in half, and spread cut sides evenly with the shrimp pure, and top with remaining shrimp.
Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc
Pinot Grigio, Riesling, and Sauvignon Blanc are great choices for Shrimp. These crisp white wines work well with shrimp prepared in a variety of ways, whether grilled, fried, or in garlic sauce. The Maysaran Arsheen Pinot Gris with a 4.5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 18 dollars per bottle.
Maysara Arsheen Pinot Gris
A bright expression of fruit right up front, greeting your palate with notes of cut grass on a warm day. The wine is anchored by crisp acidity, but not so much as to overpower a fleeting tease of sweetness that leaves you smiling. Arsheen has a smart, refreshing character that will bestow clarity to a range of preparations of fish, fowl, and pork.
