Fried Green Tomatoes

Grilled Shrimp

Remoulade

Method

Fried Green Tomatoes

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tomatoes

    Slice the green tomatoes into 1/4-inch thick slices. Sprinkle both sides with salt and let sit for 10 minutes to draw out moisture.

  2. 2

    Set Up Breading Stations

    In three separate bowls, set up the breading stations: one with flour, one with beaten eggs mixed with buttermilk, and one with cornmeal mixed with black pepper.

  3. 3

    Bread the Tomatoes

    Dredge each tomato slice in flour, dip in the egg mixture, and then coat with cornmeal. Ensure they are evenly coated.

  4. 4

    Fry the Tomatoes

    In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the breaded tomato slices until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.

Grilled Shrimp

  1. 5

    Marinate the Shrimp

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Add the shrimp and toss to coat. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 6

    Grill the Shrimp

    Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are opaque and cooked through.

Remoulade

  1. 7

    Make the Remoulade

    In a bowl, mix together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, capers, lemon juice, hot sauce, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Adjust seasoning to taste.
