THE SHRIMP PO BOY BREAKDOWN
- MEDIUM SHRIMPS – I used the frozen, deveined, and cooked shrimps.
- PAN DE SAL BUNS – You can find these at your local Filipino market. If not, use french bread. I toasted the buns through the air fryer with garlic powder and unsalted butter.
- LUCKY FOODS SEOUL GOCHUJANG PASTE
- LETTUCE AND GREEN ONIONS – All the greens to make you lean! JK, these just add a pop of color 😉
HOW TO MAKE KOREAN STYLE SHRIMP PO BOYS
In medium high heat, spray the frying pan with coconut oil. Cook shrimps for 3-4 minutes. Add all the sauce ingredients on the shrimp and turn heat down to medium. You’ll want the shrimps to soak the sauce. The sauce will thicken and that’s when you know the shrimps are done. Set aside.
TOASTING THE BUNS
Make a slit on top of each pan de sal bun. Place one pat of butter in between and sprinkle garlic powder. Air fry at 340F for 1-2 mins or until golden brown. Set aside.
BUILD IT!
Grab one pan de sal bun and open it. Lay one piece of lettuce leaf inside, followed by a tablespoon of shrimps. Sprinkle with green onions. Continue the same process with the next two. Serve and Enjoy!
