So I had this amazing shrimp sandwich years ago when I went to LA! It was so good and I couldn’t believe shrimp goes so good in a sandwich, this sandwich to be exact! I’ve tried for so long to get it right and make sure all the flavors are there and I think I have finally nailed it! This is just amazing and  I have been making it all the time ever since!

Ingredients:

(makes 2 sandwiches)

• Hogan rolls
• 1/2 shrimp
• 1 tbsp fresh thyme chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh tarragon chopped
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 3  tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp cayenne pepper
• 2 tbsp sliced cabbage
• 2 tbsp cilantro leaves
• 2 tbsp thinly sliced red onion
• salt and pepper to taste

for the sauce…

• 1 tbsp finely chopped cilantro
• 1 tsp grated jalapeño
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• 1/2 cup mayo
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp smoked paprika

Directions:

In a big bowl add chopped tarragon, thyme and garlic, then add olive oil, cayenne pepper, salt, and freshly ground black pepper and mix it together. Add you’re shrimp to the marinade bowl and let it sit until needed. While the shrimp marinades make the sauce. In a medium bowl add cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice, mayo, chili powder, and paprika and mix together then put it in squeeze sauce bottle or in a small ziplock bag for easier application. Now heat up your grill. I use either my grill pan or my outdoor far grill. While the grill is heating up make a little salad mixture, some sliced cabbage, cilantro leaves and thinly sliced onion. Once the grill is hot, toast your hogan rolls on both sides and get some grill marks. Take your marinated shrimp and grill them on both sides until cooked through. When they are cooked all the way through, get your hogan rolls ready and opened up and start dividing the shrimp and placing it equally in the rolls. Then take your sauce and drizzle it on top, and on top of that add the salad mixture evenly on all rolls. And you’re all DONE!!!

This is such a weird but amazing flavor mixture! I know shrimp in a sandwich for may sound weird but TRUST ME this will be one of the best thing you have ever tasted! It’s sooo full of flavors and they all go together so well! It’s a must try. ENJOY! 🙂
