Po'Boy-Style Shrimp Burgers with Cajun Spiced Tots

We were due for a fish dish and needed something a little quicker for a busy day. Totally love shrimp so this recipe is just lovely! I will say that it can be pricey (we budget our meals) but very worth it! What are your favorite shrimp dishes? Do you prefer your shrimp with a fork or just all out sandwich? Check out our Po'Boy! 


Ingredients:


1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil, plus more for the baking sheet

1 lb frozen potato tots or puffs

2 tsp no-salt added Cajun seasoning

1 lb large peeled and deveined shrimp, chopped

1 large egg white

2 scallions, finely chopped

2 Tbsp panko bread crumbs

Black pepper

1 lime, halved

4 challah rolls or buns, split


*Sriracha mayonnaise, lettuce and sliced tomato, for serving


Directions: 


1. Heat oven to 425 F. Rub a rimed baking sheet with oil. Scatter the tots on the sheet, then toss with the Cajun seasoning. Bake until golden brown and crisp, turning halfway through cooking, 20-25 minutes.


2. Meanwhile, in a food processor, pulse together the shrimp, egg white, scallions, panko and 1/4 tsp black pepper just to combine (there should be some chunks of shrimp).


3. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Shape the shrimp mixture into four 3/4-in. thick patties and cook until golden brown and opaque throughout, 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from the heat and squeeze the lime juice all over the burgers.


4. If desired, spread the buns with Sriracha mayonnaise, then top with the lettuce, burgers and tomato. Serve with the Cajun tots.
