Southern Grits and Eggs image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3/4 cup quick-cooking grits
1/2 cup shredded Cheddar cheese (about 2 ounces)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 large eggs
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 ounces frozen cut okra, thawed
1 bunch scallions, chopped (white and green parts separated)
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
Large pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Bring 3 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the grits, reduce the heat to medium and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the cheese and season with salt and black pepper; cover to keep warm.
  • Crack the eggs into a large bowl. Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the okra, scallion whites, bell pepper, cayenne, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and black pepper to taste; cook, stirring, until the vegetables start to soften, 2 to 4 minutes.
  • Carefully slide the eggs on top of the okra mixture, keeping the yolks intact. Reduce the heat to medium; cover and cook, rotating the skillet occasionally, until the eggs are just set, about 6 minutes.
  • Serve the grits with the vegetables and eggs. Top with the scallion greens.
