INGREDIENTS

  • Primary Ingredients

    • 1 tablespoon olive oil
    • 🧅 ½ onion, chopped
    • 2 cups chicken broth
    • 🥛 2 cups milk
    • 1 cup quick-cooking grits
    • 🧂 2 teaspoons salt
    • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    • 1 tablespoon ground cumin
    • 4 chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, minced
    • 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
    • 🧀 1 ½ cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, divided

STEPS

1

Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

2

Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until the onion softens and turns translucent, about 5 minutes.

3

Pour in the chicken broth and milk. Bring to a boil over high heat, then turn the heat to low.

4

Slowly whisk in the grits, then cover the saucepan, and cook for 5 minutes.

5

Once the grits have cooked, stir in the salt, pepper, cumin, chipotle peppers, green chiles, and 1 cup of Cheddar cheese until the cheese has melted.

6

Pour the grits into the prepared 9x13 inch dish, and sprinkle with the remaining 1/2 cup of Cheddar cheese.

7

Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is bubbly and has begun to brown, 30-45 minutes.
