Po-Boy Sandwich Ingredients

Method

Po-Boy Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a mixing bowl, combine flour, cornmeal, Cajun seasoning, and salt. In another bowl, whisk together eggs and buttermilk. Dip each shrimp in the buttermilk mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture, coating well.

  2. 2

    Fry the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, fry the coated shrimp in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Po-Boy

    Slice the French bread lengthwise, leaving one side attached. Spread mayonnaise on both sides of the bread. Layer shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and fried shrimp inside the sandwich.

  4. 4

    Serve

    Cut the Po-Boy in half and serve with your choice of side, such as French fries or coleslaw.
