Cooking Steps
- Reduce heat of water to medium.
- Add 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) butter and chicken stock powder to the pot with boiling water. Slowly whisk in cornmeal. Cook, whisking constantly, until cornmeal thickens slightly, 1-2 min.
- Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until cornmeal grains are tender, 10-12 min.
- Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/4-inch strips.
- Arrange peppers, onions and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil on an unlined baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to combine.
- Broil in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender-crisp, 8-10 min.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over high heat.
- When hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then sausage. Cook, breaking up sausage into smaller pieces, until no pink remains, 3-4 min.** Season with salt and pepper.
- Reduce heat to medium-low.
- Add crushed tomato, garlic puree and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar. Cook, stirring often, until slightly thickened, 2-3 min.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Once tender, stir veggies into the sauce.
- Once grits are tender, stir in half the Parmesan and white cheddar, until melted, 1 min. Season with salt, to taste.
- Divide grits between plates.
- Top with sausage-mixture.
- Sprinkle over remaining Parmesan.
