Chicken Po'Boy Ingredients
Method
Chicken Po'Boy Directions
- 1
Prepare the Chicken
In a bowl, soak the chicken breasts in buttermilk for at least 1 hour, or overnight in the refrigerator for best results.
- 2
Make the Coating
In a shallow dish, mix together flour, cornmeal, Cajun seasoning, salt, and black pepper.

Fry the Chicken
Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from buttermilk, allowing excess to drip off. Dredge chicken in the flour mixture, coating well. Fry the chicken in hot oil for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

Assemble the Po'Boy
Slice the baguettes lengthwise without cutting all the way through. Spread mayonnaise on the inside of each baguette. Place fried chicken inside, and top with shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and a drizzle of hot sauce.

Cut the sandwiches in half and serve immediately, enjoying the crispy chicken and fresh toppings.
