🛒 Ingredients You’ll Need

For the shrimp:

  • 1 lb medium shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp Cajun seasoning
  • ½ cup cornmeal
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • Oil for frying

For the remoulade sauce:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 tbsp hot sauce (like Tabasco)
  • 1 tbsp sweet pickle relish
  • 1 tsp lemon juice
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 clove garlic, minced

For the sandwich:

  • 2 crusty French rolls or hoagie buns

👨‍🍳 How to Make Shrimp Po’Boy

Step 1: Marinate the Shrimp

In a bowl, combine shrimp, buttermilk, garlic powder, paprika, and Cajun seasoning. Marinate for 15–20 minutes.

Step 2: Mix Dry Coating

Combine cornmeal and flour in a shallow bowl. Dredge marinated shrimp until coated.

Step 3: Fry the Shrimp

Heat oil in a skillet. Fry shrimp in batches until golden brown (about 2–3 minutes per side). Drain on paper towels.

Step 4: Make Remoulade

Whisk together all remoulade ingredients. Taste and adjust spice level as needed.

Step 5: Assemble the Sandwich

Split your rolls, spread remoulade generously, layer lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and pile on the hot shrimp. Serve immediately!

  • Use fresh shrimp for best flavor.
  • Add extra hot sauce for more kick.
  • Toast the rolls lightly for better texture.
  • Swap shrimp with oysters or catfish for variations!
