"Skinny" Shrimp 'Po Boys'

Well, yesterday was Ash Wednesday so I had to eat fish for religious purposes. I was going to make a yummy salad with...shocker...avocados, but I ran out (this makes me sad). So, I was thinking about Fat Tuesday which in turn makes me think of Louisiana and yummy food down there. I had shrimp and some mixed greens and stuff in my fridge and decided to make up a "Po Boy". This is by no means authentic, I made it up to taste and it was delicious!!!!!

"Skinny" Shrimp 'Po Boys'

Makes 4 Servings

1 lb frozen shrimp

1/4 cup mixed greens

4 bollilo rolls; cut with a slit and lightly toasted

1 Tbsp onion powder

1 Tbsp garlic powder

1 Tbsp paprika

1 tsp black pepper

1 tsp cayenne pepper (I like the heat)

1 tsp cajun seasoning (I use Tony Chachere's)

1 Tbsp olive oil

1 Tbsp "Skinny" Remoulade sauce

First, I had my hubby peel and take the tails off of 1 lb of defrosted frozen shrimp (I make him peel them because I think it's gross lol). I buy the bags of medium uncooked shrimp from Aldi for like 4$. There are about 45 shrimp in the bag. Once they are rinsed clean, I put them in a large bowl with the olive oil, onion powder, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne, black pepper, and cajun seasoning. Toss them around to completely coat....Use your hands, it's easiest. Get a pan REALLY hot and then add the shrimp and cook them completely. It takes about 5-7 minutes. Once that is done, take about 10-12 shrimp and add them to your roll, add a tablespoon of the remoulade, then top with the greens. 

These were so yummy and so flavorful, I am definitely adding them to my repertoire. I served them with baked season fries. 

Enjoy!!!
