Ingredients
For the Shrimp
- ½ pound raw shrimp peeled and deveined
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour divided
- 1 tablespoon Cajun Seasoning
- 1 ⅓ cup milk
- 1 cup vegetable oil for frying
Cajun Aioli
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Cajun Seasoning
Sandwich Ingredients
- 2 Hoagie rolls
- shredded cabbage
- Sliced pickles
- sliced tomatoes
Instructions
- Prepare the shrimp by peeling or deveining it if needed. If you have frozen shrimp, be sure it is thawed. Toss in ½ cup flour, coating evenly.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil.
- To make the coating for the shrimp, combine 1 cup of flour, cajun seasoning, and milk. Stir to combine. This will create a thick batter.
- Dip each shrimp into the batter to coat completely then shake a few times for excess batter to drip off. Place the shrimp into the hot oil then fry for about 4-5 minutes. Remove the cooked shrimp from the oil then place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
- To make the cajun aioli, whisk together the mayonnaise, lemon juice, and cajun seasoning in a small bowl until combined.
- To assemble the po boy, spread some cajun aioli on the buns. Sprinkle a bed of cabbage on the bottom bun, followed by a layer of pickles and tomatoes. Place a layer of cooked shrimp onto the sandwich then drizzle with additional aioli sauce to taste.
