Time 1h50m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
3 cups milk
Kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 1/4 cups grits (not instant)
3/4 cup grated sharp Cheddar
3/4 cup grated pepper-jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a deep casserole dish.
  • Bring the chicken broth, milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and cayenne to a boil in a medium saucepan. Slowly whisk in the grits and lower the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 30 minutes.
