Shrimp Po-Boy Ingredients

Method

Cooking Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Shrimp

    In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, and cajun seasoning. Dredge the shrimp in the buttermilk, then coat them in the flour mixture. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat the Oil

    In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C) over medium-high heat.

  3. 3

    Fry the Shrimp

    Carefully add the coated shrimp to the hot oil in batches. Fry until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  4. 4

    Toss in Voodoo Sauce

    In a large bowl, toss the fried shrimp with the Voodoo sauce until well coated.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Po-Boy

    Slice the French bread or hoagie rolls lengthwise. Fill each roll with the sauced shrimp, and top with shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and pickles.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately and enjoy your Voodoo Shrimp Po-Boy!
