The first time I visited New Orleans I ordered a Shrimp Po Boy for my first meal. We had been walking around the French Quarter for hours and decided to pop into a popular local restaurant. I knew I had to have one as soon as I saw Po Boy on the menu. You can’t find a sandwich like this anywhere else in the world. The ingredients are so simple, but together, it makes the best sandwich ever. Create the best sandwich with a spicy, buttery shrimp that cooks up in just 20 minutes, then combined with a creamy cajun sauce. It is no wonder that shrimp sandwiches are so popular because they are super easy to make! You can serve them as an appetizer or main course, but either way, you’ll want to keep this recipe around for when you need a quick meal.
Butter – Start with 4 tbsp but add more if needed Garlic – Fresh cloves, minced Shrimp – Medium to large, uncooked, peeled and deveined Creole seasoning – Hoagie rolls or French bread – Bratwurst buns work great too. This recipe makes four big sandwiches. Shredded cabbage – You can use shredded lettuce too. Toppings – Sweet pickles, dill pickle chips, tomato slices, and Dijon mustard – all optional toppings, see more topping ideas below.
