  1. Cook grits according to package directions.

  2. Cut bacon into bite size pieces. Cook in large skillet over medium-high until crispy. Remove bacon from skillet with slotted spoon, reserving drippings.

  3. Add garlic, shrimp, butter, and tiger sauce (if using) to skillet. Cook, stirring for 3-4 minutes until shrimp are pink and no longer opaque.

  4. Remove skillet from heat, and add lemon juice and parsley. Return cooked bacon pieces to pan. Stir to coat shrimp.

  5. Divide the grits among shallow bowls and top with shrimp mixture. Garnish with Parmesan cheese.
