Ingredients
Scale
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 French baguette
Shredded lettuce

Pickles (optional)
Instructions
Start by marinating your shrimp to infuse them with flavor. In a bowl, combine shrimp with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper. Let them sit for about 20 minutes to absorb those spices.
While your shrimp are marinating, whip up the Cajun sauce. In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, hot sauce, and a pinch of Cajun seasoning.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat, adding a tablespoon of oil. Add the marinated shrimp and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until they are opaque.
Cut the baguette in half and lightly toast each side on a griddle or in the oven at 350°F for about 5 minutes.
Spread a generous amount of the Cajun sauce on both sides of the toasted baguette. Layer in the cooked shrimp, followed by shredded lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and pickles if using. Close the sandwich.
Serve your Cajun Shrimp Po Boy. Pair it with a side of fries or a fresh salad.
