Grits With Caramelized Onions And Goat Cheese

1. 1

   Heat a medium skillet over medium heat. Add butter to skillet and swirl to coat.

2. 2

   Add onions, cover and cook for about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Uncover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions reach a deep, golden brown color. This should take about 25 minutes, but will depend on how thinly the onion is sliced.

4. 4

   Remove the caramelized onions and add water to skillet, scraping up any brown bits that may have formed.

5. 5

   Bring water to rapid boil and gradually whisk in grits, *making sure* to prevent any clumps from forming.

6. 6

   Cover and reduce heat to medium-low.

7. 7

   Cook until grits are thickened, approximately five minutes, adding more water if necessary. Note: For thicker consistency, I cook the grits for 7 minutes total.

8. 8

   Remove from heat and stir in the caramelized onions.

9. 9

   Crumble in goat cheese and stir to combine.
