Weeknight Shrimp And Grits



===================
Instant Pot Grits =
===================
2 cups stone ground grits
6 cups chicken broth
1 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 cup milk
1 tbsp butter

Melt butter in Instant Pot using the saute feature, until the bottom is covered with melted butter.
Add grits and broth. Stir.
Set Instant Pot for 10 minutes.
If the instant pot says 'burn', dont' worry about it and just wait as normal. When the 10 minutes finishes, let the Instant Pot decompress on it's own for about 10 minutes.
Stir in milk, cheese, and serve immediately....

...with SHRIMP!!
