A friend of mine shared this recipe with me and it is great. He used chicken but suggested we try it with oysters. This makes a fantastic oyster po-boy! Hope you enjoy! Thanks Aaron!
Ingredients
1 pint medium oysters, drained
and dried off
1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 cups Cheez-It crackers, crushed to fine crumbs
Cajun Seasoning to taste
1/4 teaspoon celery salt
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup shortening or enough for deep frying
How to make-
Clean and wash oysters. Get as much moisture off of the oysters as you can. Get 3 shallow dishes out. In one add your flour. In the second combine milk and egg. In the last one combine Cheez-It® Cracker crumbs, Cajun seasoning, celery salt and parsley. Dredge oysters in flour and then dip oysters in mixture of egg and milk. Roll oysters in crumbs until well coated. Let sit for 5 minutes or so and let coating set. In a large heavy frying pan with high sides or deep fryer heat oil until sizzling hot, 360 degrees. Add oysters and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Serve on buttered and toasted French bread with the Sisters remoulade sauce or tartar sauce. Dress sandwich with slice tomatoes, shredded lettuce and slice onion.
