Main Ingredients

Spicy Remoulade

Breading and Frying

Method

Preparing the Spicy Remoulade

  1. 1

    Make the Remoulade

    In a mixing bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, hot sauce, garlic powder, paprika, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and refrigerate until ready to use.

Preparing the Oysters

  1. 2

    Shuck and Prepare Oysters

    Carefully shuck the oysters and remove any shell fragments. Rinse them under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel.

  2. 3

    Marinate Oysters

    In a bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Dip each oyster into the egg mixture, allowing excess to drip off.

Breading the Oysters

  1. 4

    Coat the Oysters

    Combine flour and cornmeal in a shallow dish. Dredge each oyster in the flour mixture, coating completely, and set aside.

Frying the Oysters

  1. 5

    Heat Oil

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).

  2. 6

    Fry Oysters

    Carefully add the breaded oysters to the hot oil, cooking until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Assembling the Po' Boy

  1. 7

    Prepare the Baguette

    Slice the French baguette lengthwise and lightly toast it if desired.

  2. 8

    Layer Ingredients

    Spread a generous amount of spicy remoulade on the inside of the baguette. Layer fried oysters, crispy bacon, shredded lettuce, and tomato slices.

Serving

  1. 9

    Serve with Fries
