Provided by Bobby Flay

Time 1h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 cup rice flour
1 cup water
Few dashes hot sauce (recommended: Tabasco)
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 cups fine yellow cornmeal
3 green tomatoes, sliced 1/4-inch thick
Canola oil, for frying
8 slices pain de mie, or other white sandwich bread, lightly toasted
Remoulade Sauce, recipe follows
1 pound applewood-smoked bacon, thinly sliced about 1/8-inch thick, cooked until crisp
Watercress
2 egg yolks
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
Canola oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup whole grain mustard
4 cornichons, cut into small dice
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Whisk together the flour and water in a shallow bowl until smooth. Season with hot sauce, salt, and pepper. Spread the cornmeal onto a plate and season with salt and pepper.
  • Pat the tomatoes dry with paper towels. Heat 1-inch of oil in a cast-iron pan over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Season the tomatoes on both sides with salt and pepper. Dip each tomato into the batter and let the excess drip off. Dredge in the cornmeal and pat off the excess. Fry the tomatoes, in batches, until golden brown on both sides.
  • Spread both sides of the bread with some of the Remoulade Sauce. Top 1 side with a few slices of tomatoes, a few strips of bacon, and some watercress. Top with the other slice of bread, sauce-side down. Repeat to make 4 sandwiches.
  • Whisk together the yolks, lemon juice, vinegar until pale. Slowly drizzle in the canola oil until emulsified. Season with salt and pepper. Whisk in the mustard, cornichons, thyme, and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  • *RAW EGG WARNING
  • Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell. For recipes that call for eggs that are raw or undercooked when the dish is served use shell eggs that have been treated to destroy Salmonella, by pasteurization or another approved method.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

8 strips applewood-smoked bacon
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 pound medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons prepared horseradish, drained
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup finely diced celery
2 tablespoons finely chopped parsley
Hot sauce, optional
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 plum tomatoes, sliced into thick rounds
1 cup buttermilk
2 large eggs
1 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup grated pecorino Romano
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1 cup canola oil
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
4 thick slices pan de mie, toasted
Butter lettuce leaves, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Lay the bacon on a baking sheet. Bake until the fat has rendered and the bacon is crisp, about 20 minutes. Drain on paper towels, then the strips cut in half crosswise.
  • For the shrimp remoulade: Heat the canola oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Sprinkle the shrimp with salt and pepper, and add to the pan in a single layer. Cook until just cooked through, about 2 minutes per side. Spread the shrimp, with their juices, on a plate and chill until cooled. Once cool, chop coarsely.
  • Whisk together the mayonnaise, horseradish, Dijon mustard, whole-grain mustard, lemon juice, celery, parsley and some hot sauce if using. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside 1/3 cup of the remoulade for spreading on bread. Fold the chopped shrimp and their juices into the remaining remoulade and mix until combined. Chill while you make the tomatoes.
  • For the fried red tomatoes: Line a wire baking rack with several layers of paper towels and place over a baking sheet. Salt the tomato slices lightly on both sides and let sit on the paper towels for 30 minutes, turning halfway through, to drain of excess liquid.
  • Whisk together the buttermilk and eggs in a small shallow dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Whisk together the cornmeal, flour, pecorino, garlic powder, cayenne and onion powder in a medium shallow dish and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the oil in a high-sided medium skillet over medium heat until almost smoking; add a few bits of cornmeal to test the temperature. Season the tomatoes with pepper and dip them in the buttermilk mixture, allowing the excess to drain off; then dredge them in the flour mixture, tapping off the excess. Fry the tomatoes until golden brown and crisp, turning once, 3 to 4 minutes total. Discard the paper towels from the rack and set the fried tomatoes on the rack to drain. Sprinkle with salt and parsley.
  • To assemble the BLT: Spread some of the reserved remoulade on each piece of toast. Top with some lettuce, a generous amount of shrimp remoulade, some bacon and a few slices of fried tomato. Serve immediately, with knives and forks.
