Shrimp Po' Boys

with Tomato & Southwest Slaw

5 min
Difficulty: 1/3

These po’ boys star fried shrimp coated in a light, crispy tempura batter kicked up with a Southwest seasoning blend. A creamy, tangy slaw makes for a crunchy topping with juicy tomatoes and a creamy sauce reminiscent of remoulade. Stuff everything into toasty baguettes along with a squeeze of lime. Serve the rest of the crispy shrimp and slaw on the side and let the good times roll!

Preparation
1
Prep

  • Wash and dry produce.

  • Quarter lime. Thinly slice tomato into rounds.

2
Heat Oil & Mix Slaw

  • Heat a ⅓-inch layer of oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. TIP: If your oil heats up too quickly, simply lower the temperature until you're ready to fry the shrimp in Step 4.

  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine coleslaw mix, half the dressing, juice from one lime wedge (two wedges for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. Set aside until ready to serve.

3
Coat Shrimp

  • Rinse shrimp* under cold water; pat very dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper.

  • In a second medium bowl, combine tempura batter mix, Southwest Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Whisk in ⅓ cup water (⅔ cup for 4 servings). TIP: If mixture seems too thick, add more water 1 TBSP at a time until it reaches a pancake-batter-like consistency.

  • Add shrimp to bowl with batter; stir until evenly coated.

4
Fry Shrimp

  • Once oil is hot enough that a drop of batter sizzles when added to the pan, working in batches, add coated shrimp in a single layer. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, 2-3 minutes on the first side and 1-2 minutes on the second side.

  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer shrimp to a paper-towel-lined plate.

5
Prep Baguettes

  • Meanwhile, slice baguettes in half lengthwise; use a spoon to carefully hollow out baguettes. TIP: Save insides of baguettes for another use, like homemade breadcrumbs.

  • Toast baguettes.

6
Assemble & Serve

  • Spread tops of baguettes with remaining dressing.

  • Evenly fill bottoms of baguettes with half the slaw, as many shrimp as will fit, and tomato. Close to form po' boys.

  • Serve shrimp po' boys with remaining slaw, any remaining shrimp, and remaining lime wedges on the side.
