Ingredients
Po'Boy
- 20 ounce Chicken Nuggets cooked
- 3 loaves French bread cut in half
- 2 cups lettuce shredded
- 3 tomates sliced
- Spicy Bread and Butter Pickles or sweet pickles
Remoulade Sauce
- 1 cup mayonnaise
- 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 1 tablespoon sweet pickle juice
- 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon prepared horseradish
- ½ teaspoon Creole Seasoning (Tony Chachere’s)
- 1 clove garlic mashed
Instructions
- Bake the chicken according to package directions.
- Slice the bread almost all the way through but leave a "hinge" on the bottom.
- Open it up, brush with olive oil, and toast under the broiler, watching carefully so it doesn't burn.
- Spread a layer of the remoulade on the toasted bread.
- Cover with shredded lettuce.
- Lay tomato slices over the lettuce.
- Place pickle slices over the tomatoes.
- Add a generous amount of the hot chicken chunks and drizzle with more remoulade.
Remoulade Sauce
- Mix all ingredients together.
- Let stand overnight in the fridge if possible for the flavors to blend.
- Store in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator.
Notes
Tips:
- This is best made on New Orleans style soft French bread. The outside should be soft and giving, not crispy and crumbly.
- Load it up! Po' Boys are meant to be hearty and extravagant. Pile on the toppings and let the remoulade drip!
- Lettuce, tomato, and pickles are a must!
- Have plenty of napkins ready - this is a messy sandwich and we like it that way.
