Method
Shrimp Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Shrimp
In a large bowl, season the peeled and deveined shrimp with salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic powder. Set aside for 15 minutes to marinate.
- 2
Coat the Shrimp
In three separate bowls, place the cornstarch, beaten eggs, and panko breadcrumbs. Dredge each marinated shrimp in the cornstarch, dip in the beaten eggs, and then coat with the panko breadcrumbs. Ensure each shrimp is well-coated.
- 3
Fry the Shrimp
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the breaded shrimp in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Boom Boom Sauce

Mix the Sauce
In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, sriracha sauce, and lemon juice until smooth and well combined.
Poboy Assembly
- 5
Prepare the Bread
Slice the French baguette or poboy rolls lengthwise, being careful not to cut all the way through.
- 6
Assemble the Poboy
Spread a generous amount of the Boom Boom sauce on the inside of each roll. Layer shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and pickles inside the rolls. Top with the fried shrimp and drizzle more Boom Boom sauce on top if desired.
- 7
Serve
Cut the assembled poboys in half and serve immediately with extra Boom Boom sauce on the side.
