Instructions
Whip Up the Zesty Remoulade Sauce:
Combine all your remoulade sauce ingredients: mayonnaise, grated garlic, minced dill pickles, fresh lemon juice, Dijon mustard, prepared horseradish, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce, Cajun seasoning, and a pinch of salt.- Whisk everything together until it's smooth and creamy. Set it aside to let those delicious flavors blend while you prepare the shrimp.
Prepare and Fry the Crispy Shrimp:
First, make sure your shrimp are washed, peeled, and deveined, with tails removed. Set them aside.- In one shallow bowl, mix together the pork panko, almond flour, and Cajun seasoning. Give it a good whisk to combine.
- In another separate bowl, beat the eggs well.
- Take each shrimp and dip it into the beaten egg, letting any extra egg drip off.
- Next, gently coat the shrimp in the breading mixture. You want a thin, even layer, so no need to press hard!
- Once all your shrimp are breaded, heat some avocado oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Fry the shrimp in small batches until they're golden brown and perfectly crispy.
- Transfer the cooked shrimp to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any extra oil while you get your buns ready.
Assemble Your Delicious Po' Boys:
Open up each keto-friendly hot dog bun.- Pile some of the thinly shredded lettuce inside each bun.
- Arrange the sliced pickles on one side and the sliced tomatoes on the other.
- Finally, add your crispy fried shrimp and drizzle generously with the homemade remoulade sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy every bite!
