Nick, my amazing husband, made dinner for me the other night. He decided to make a shrimp po’boy. It was absolutely delicious.
Ingredients:
4 tbsp flour
1 tbsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp yellow mustard
1 egg
1 tbsp of water
1 tbsp of Whiskey
4 tbsp cornmeal
oil
one dozen medium sized shrimp, de-shelled and de-veined
1 large french bread roll, cut in half
spicy brown mustard
mayo
2 cups of coleslaw
1 tomato, sliced
1 small red onion, sliced
Directions: I don’t know precisely how he made it, so I am kinda just winging it off of what he mentioned to me, you may have to adjust measurements etc.
- Combine the flour and cayenne pepper in a bowl, blend well and set aside
- Combine the yellow mustard, egg, water, and whiskey in a bowl, blend well and set aside
- Place the cornmeal in a bowl, set aside
- Heat up some oil in a pan to medium heat.
- Take a shrimp, one at a time and dip it in the flour mixture, then the egg mixture, then the cornmeal and place in the oil. Repeat with all shrimp. Cook the shrimp about 2 minutes on each side.
- Once shrimp is cooked, place on a french roll with the mayo, mustard, tomatoes, onions and coleslaw. Enjoy!
