Shrimp Po' Boy Ingredients

Method

Preparation Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.

  2. 2

    Coat the Shrimp

    Dip each shrimp into the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour-cornmeal mixture until well coated.

  3. 3

    Fry the Shrimp

    In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Fry the shrimp in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Po' Boy

    Slice the buns in half and spread a layer of tartar sauce on the bottom half. Layer with the fried or grilled shrimp, followed by tomato slices and a generous amount of creole cole slaw.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately with extra tartar sauce on the side.
