Ingredients

  • 1 1 1 pound shrimp, deveined I usually go for the biggest shrimp I can find because they shrink a little when you cook them
  • 1/2 1/2 1/2 cup Louisiana Fish Fry
  • 1/4 1/4 1/4 cup buttermilk
  • 4 4 2 French bread hoagie rolls I used 2 loaves, cut each in half
  • 2 2 2 cups shredded lettuce
  • 8 8 8 tomato slices
  • 1 1 1 tsp Creole Seasoning I used Cony Chachere
  • 1 1 1 tsp butter optional
  • Remoulade Sauce
  • 1/2 1/2 1/2 cup mayo I used reduced-fat
  • 1 1 1 tsp minced garlic
  • 1/2 1/2 1/2 lemon juice of
  • 1 1 1 tsp Worcestershire
  • 1/2 1/2 1/2 tsp Creole Seasoning I used Cony Chachere

Preparation

Step 1

Remoulade Sauce
Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Refrigerate prior to serving while the shrimp cooks.

Shrimp Po Boy
Season the shrimp with the seasonings.

Pour the buttermilk in a bowl. Dip each of the shrimp in the buttermilk. Place the shrimp in a Ziploc bag and in the fridge to marinate. Marinate for at least 30 minutes. I prefer overnight.

Add the fish fry to a bowl. Remove the shrimp from the bags and dip each into the fish fry. Add the shrimp to to Air Fryer basket.

Preheat Air Fryer to 400 degrees.

Spray the shrimp with olive oil. Do not spray directly on the shrimp. The fish fry will go flying. Keep a nice distance.

Cook the shrimp for 5 minutes. Open the basket and flip the shrimp to the other side. Cook for an additional 5 minutes or until crisp.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Place the sliced bread on a sheet pan.

Allow the bread to toast for a couple of minutes.

Optional step if you prefer butter: Melt the butter in the microwave. Using a cooking brush, spread the butter over the bottom of the French bread.

Assemble the po boy. Spread the remoulade sauce on the French bread. Add the sliced tomato and lettuce, and then the shrimp.
