This will be a new family fave.

For crisp, beautifully golden shrimp, double dredge in a cornmeal mixture and give the coated shrimp a short rest in the fridge before cooking. Don’t sleep on the creamy, relish-spiked remoulade either. Slathered on pillowy rolls, it takes these stunning sandos over the top.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 tsp. no-salt Cajun seasoning (see Note), divided
- Kosher salt
- 2 large eggs
- 5 Tbsp. sour cream, divided
- 1 lb. peeled and deveined extra-large shrimp, tails removed
- 3 Tbsp. mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp. sweet pickle relish
- 1 tsp. spicy brown mustard
- 4 Tbsp. olive oil, divided
- 4 soft hero rolls, warmed and split
- 7 oz. romaine hearts, sliced
- 2 tomatoes, sliced
Directions
- Step 1In shallow bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, 11/2 teaspoons Cajun seasoning, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In second bowl, whisk together eggs and 2 tablespoons sour cream.
- Step 2Dip shrimp in cornmeal mixture, then egg mixture, letting excess drip off, then in cornmeal mixture again; press gently to make cornmeal adhere. Transfer to plate and refrigerate 10 minutes.
- Step 3Meanwhile, make rémoulade: In small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, relish, mustard, and remaining 3 tablespoons sour cream and 1/4 teaspoon Cajun seasoning.
- Step 4Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large skillet on medium. Add half of shrimp and cook undisturbed until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Flip and cook on second side until coating is crisp and shrimp is opaque throughout, 1 to 2 minutes. Repeat with remaining 2 tablespoons oil and shrimp.
- Step 5Spread rolls with remoulade, then fill with shrimp, lettuce, and tomatoes.
Note: Brands of Cajun seasoning vary in salt level, so adjust the salt in the recipe as needed.
Double-Dip: Dredging shrimp in the cornmeal mixture twice ensures an extra-crispy coating with twice the flavor and crunch.
