Crusty, well-toasted bread; crispy pan-seared shrimp; and crunchy slaw make this sandwich worth every bite.
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons canola mayonnaise
1 tablespoon minced shallots
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (such as tabasco)
1/4 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 garlic clove, minced
2 1/2 cups packaged cabbage-and-carrot coleslaw
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 large egg white
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
4 (2 1/2-ounce) pieces french bread baguette, split and toasted
3 tablespoons stone-ground cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
8 (1/4-inch-thick) slices tomato
Directions:
1. To prepare rémoulade slaw, combine first 9 ingredients in a medium bowl, stirring with a whisk. Add coleslaw; toss to coat. Cover and chill.
2. To prepare po'boys, combine cornstarch and next 4 ingredients (through egg white) in a medium bowl; whisk until blended. Add shrimp; toss well. Marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes, stirring once.
3. Hollow out top and bottom halves of bread, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell. Place torn bread in a food processor; process until very fine crumbs form. Set aside 1/2 cup breadcrumbs; reserve remaining breadcrumbs for another use. Combine 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, cornmeal, and black pepper in a large zip-top plastic bag; seal and shake to combine.
4. Remove shrimp from bowl; discard marinade. Add shrimp to breadcrumb mixture. Seal and shake to coat.
5. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add shrimp; cook 3 minutes on each side or until done.
6. Arrange 1/2 cup slaw on each bottom half of bread. Top with one quarter of shrimp and 2 tomato slices. Cover with top half of bread.
