- 1/4 cup (1 ounce) freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 3/4 cup fresh lima beans
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons chopped celery
- 2 tablespoons chopped carrot
- 1/2 cup water
- 3/4 cup fresh corn kernels
- 24 large raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/2 cup diced tasso ham
- 1/4 cup diced shallot
- 2 tablespoons white wine
- 3/4 cup grape tomato halves
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1/8 teaspoon Tabasco sauce

- Bring 4 cups water and 1 teaspoon salt to a boil in a medium, heavy saucepan; gradually whisk in grits. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 20 to 25 minutes or until thick, stirring often. Remove from heat, and add 1/4 cup butter and Parmesan cheese, stirring until cheese melts; cover and keep warm.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a saute pan or large skillet over medium-high heat; add lima beans, onion, celery, and carrot; saute 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup water; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes. Add corn; cook, uncovered, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove vegetables from pan; keep warm.

Add white wine, and cook to deglaze pan (stirring to loosen particles from bottom of skillet). Add lima bean mixture and tomato halves to pan. Cook 1 to 2 minutes or until heated through. Stir in remaining 1/4 cup butter, lemon juice, and Tabasco sauce; season to taste with salt (about 1/4 teaspoon) and white pepper. Serve shrimp and succotash over hot grits.
