Chai Spiced Grits

1. 1

   In a medium saucepan over medium heat, bring 4 cups water to a boil.

2. 2

   Add 1 tablespoon salt, 1 teaspoon pepper and the tea bags and steep for 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Remove and discard the tea bags.

4. 4

   Add the cinnamon and stir to combine.

5. 5

   Bring the chai mixture back to a boil and sprinkle the grits over it slowly, to prevent clumping.

6. 6

   Cook, uncovered and stirring constantly to prevent sticking, until the grits are soft and have a creamy texture, 25 to 35 minutes.

7. 7

   (If the grits get too dry, add up to 2 cups warm water during cooking.)

8. 8

   Remove from the heat and stir in the cream and lemon zest.

9. 9

   Season with more salt and pepper, if necessary.
