Servings: persons

3 cups water
3 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons butter
3/4 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cups old-fashioned grits
vegetable oil
6 ounces fresh pork chorizo (Mexican style)
1/4 cup butter
1 small shallot, minced
1 large uncooked lobster tail, meat removed from shell and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
4 ounces shredded Gouda cheese
4 ounces shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
salt and ground black pepper to taste

1
Bring water, broth, 2 tablespoons butter, and salt to a boil in a heavy saucepan. Stir in grits. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until water is absorbed and grits are a thick consistency, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat.
2
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Lightly oil a 8x10-inch baking dish.
3
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add chorizo; cook and stir, breaking into small pieces, until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from pan with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
4
Heat 1/4 cup butter in a pot. Add shallot; cook and stir until shallot softens and butter is bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add lobster and garlic. Cook just until lobster turns opaque, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat.
5
Whisk shredded Gouda cheese and Cheddar cheese into the grits. Add chorizo, salt, and pepper. Pour into the prepared baking dish. Top with lobster, shallots, and pan drippings.
6
Bake in the preheated oven until heated through and bubbly, 15 to 20 minutes.
