Cajun Shrimp βnβ Chips Po Boy Salad with Avocado Tarter Sauce.
It's a good mix of spring and summer and it's also just plain good. Heavy on the southern flavors with a big ol' cajun kick. And the chips? Well, I actually think they're British, but I think they may do them in the south too? Not sure, but I do I love a big ol' salad.

- 4 g reen onions (sliced)
- 1/2 cup fresh parsley
- 1 pound uncooked shrimp (peeled + deveined)
- 1 tablespoon creole seasoning
- 2 tablespoons cajun seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 egg
- 3/4 cup panko bread crumbs (use gluten free if needed)
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- canola oil (for frying)
- 1 whole avocado
- 1/4 cup greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons horseradish (or more or less to your taste)
- 1/2 lemon (juiced)
- 1 teaspoon honey
- pinch of salt and pepper
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
-
Place cut potatoes in a large bowl and drizzle with oil, cajun seasoning, creole seasoning and pepper. Gently toss with your hands or two spatulas to evenly coat. Spread on a baking sheet in one layer. Roast for 25-30 minutes, then flip and roast for 25-30 minutes more. This may take longer depending on how thick you cut your potatoes. You want the potatoes to be deeply golden and crispy on the outside!
-
Meanwhile add the lettuce, cabbage, bell peppers, tomatoes, corn, green onions and parsley to a large salad bowl and toss well. Place in the fridge, covered until ready to serve.
-
To make the shrimp, add the shrimp to a bowl and toss with the creole seasoning, cajun seasoning, smoked paprika and cayenne. Set aside
-
In a small bowl whisk the milk and egg together. In another medium bowl combine the Panko bread crumbs with the cornmeal.
-
Take the shrimp and dip it in the milk/egg mixture and then dredge the shrimp through the Panko mixture and place on a plate. Repeat until all the shrimp have been breaded.
-
Heat a skillet with about an 1/2 inch of oil over medium heat. Once hot fry the shrimp for 2-3 minutes per side or until lightly golden and crisp. Remove and place on paper towels to drain.
-
To assemble the salads divide the greens among plates or bowls, top with chips and crispy shrimp. Serve with fresh lemon wedges and the avocado tarter sauce (below).
-
Add the avocado, greek yogurt, horseradish, lemon juice, honey and a pinch of salt + pepper to a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and creamy. Serve along side the salad. Store in the fridge.
