Description

Enjoy a crispy, flavorful Arthur Treacher’s Po Boy Sandwich made at home—loaded with golden fried fish, fresh toppings, and zesty sauce on a toasted bun.

Ingredients 

  • 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1-2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • 4 French bread rolls, split and lightly toasted
  • Lettuce, shredded, for serving
  • Tomato slices, for serving
  • Pickles, for serving

Instructions

  • Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels. Season them generously with Cajun seasoning.
  • Set up a breading station with three shallow bowls. Place the flour in the first bowl, beaten eggs in the second, and panko breadcrumbs in the third.
  • Dredge each shrimp in flour, shaking off the excess. Dip next into the beaten eggs, then finally coat well with the panko breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.
  • Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C) for about 3-5 minutes.
  • Place the breaded shrimp in the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they are not touching. You may need to work in batches depending on the size of your air fryer. Cook for 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the shrimp are golden and crispy.
  • Spread mayonnaise or remoulade sauce on both sides of the toasted French bread rolls. Layer lettuce, tomato slices, and pickles on the bottom halves. Top with the crispy air-fried shrimp.
  • Close the sandwiches with the top halves of the rolls. Serve immediately while the shrimp are still warm and crispy.
