Directions:In a medium pot, stir together the milk and heavy cream over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Slowly whisk the grits into the pot. When mixture begins to bubble, reduce the heat to medium-low. Add 1 teaspoon salt and ˝ teaspoon pepper. Continue whisking the grits frequently for 10-15 minutes until mixture thickened. Remove the grits from the heat. Add the butter and cheddar cheese, and whisk to incorporate. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet on medium-high heat. Add the onions, peppers, and garlic. Sauté for 2 minutes until onions and peppers have softened. Add the sausage. Cook until cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Slowly add the chicken stock. Stir until well-incorporated. Add the shrimp. Cook until pink in color, about 3 minutes. Add the cayenne, remaining teaspoon salt, and remaining ˝ teaspoon black pepper. Add additional cayenne pepper, if desired. Remove from the heat and spoon the sausage and shrimp mixture over the grits. Sprinkle scallions on top, if desired.
