Fried Oysters image

Use my Baguette Rolls recipe, and then top with Emeril's Remoulade for a perfect Oyster Po Boy. This is basically Guy Fieri's excellent recipe, but with the remoulade made separately.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 cup buttermilk
1 egg, beaten
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon white pepper
16 medium oysters, shucked, liquid reserved
1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
1/4 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup flour
2 tablespoons dried basil
2 tablespoons granulated garlic
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 -3 teaspoons sea salt, divided
1 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
1/2 teaspoon hot paprika
1 cup canola oil
2 teaspoons kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine the buttermilk, beaten egg, hot sauce, 1 teaspoon of basil, granulated garlic and white pepper and mix well. Add the oysters and any liquid from shucking. Cover and refrigerate 15 minutes.
  • In a shallow bowl, combine the panko, cornmeal, flour, remaining basil, granulated garlic, cayenne, 1 teaspoons salt, pepper and paprika and mix well.
  • Heat the oil to 350 degrees F in a large cast-iron skillet.
  • Drain the oysters from the buttermilk mixture and dredge through the breading mixture, pressing gently to adhere. Carefully add to the hot oil in batches, to not crowd, and cook 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate and season with the remaining kosher salt while hot.
