Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 slices bacon, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 onion, very thinly sliced
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 cups coarse stone-ground grits
2 cups heavy cream
2 cups grated Monterey Jack cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a heavy pot, cook the bacon over medium heat to render the fat, about 2 minutes. Add the onions and cook with the bacon until the onions are golden brown and the bacon is chewy, about 5 minutes. Carefully add the chicken broth and 2 cups water. Whisk in the grits. Bring to a boil, lower to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 25 minutes. Stir in the cream and cheese until thoroughly combined. Season with salt and pepper.
