This sandwich tastes great with potatoes and fresh corn sides like our chili lime grilled corn on the cob and crispy garlic smashed red potatoes. For our take on this classic sandwich, we use a few unconventional ingredients like miso, panko, and sesame oil that add lots of Asian flavor and flare. We opt for a soft brioche bun but you could use a crusty baguette or hotdog bun, if you prefer. Serve these po’ boys for lunch, as a dinner sandwich, or a game-day snack that everyone will love!

Here’s what you’ll need for the homemade sesame slaw:

Sesame oil – a little bit of this oil goes a long way for adding lots of rich, sesame flavor. Miso paste – miso is a Japanese fermented soybean paste that adds umami flavor, and it’s full of healthy probiotics, too! Rice vinegar – this is the acidic element of the dressing. It adds brightness and enhances the other flavors. Honey – adds natural sweetness to the savory dressing. Cabbage, carrot, and onion – thinly sliced cabbage, shredded carrot, and finely minced onion make up the crunchy slaw. Sesame seeds – toasted sesame seeds, for topping the slaw and a little visual pop.

Flour – we use regular all-purpose flour. Sweet paprika – this seasoning has a slightly sweet taste and fruity flavor. Oysters – fresh oysters, shucked and rinsed in cold water. Egg – when combined with flour, eggs act like a binder helping the panko stick to the oysters. Panko – these Japanese bread crumbs have a drier and crunchier texture than regular breadcrumbs and are perfect for breading and coating fried foods. You could also use regular breadcrumbs if you prefer. Oil – any neutral, high-heat oil for frying.

Lastly, you’ll need chipotle aioli and brioche buns for serving. Let’s walk through making this oyster po boy recipe and you’ll see how easy it is!   These are some of our favorite recipes to serve with an oyster po’ boy:

Fresh corn like buffalo corn on the cob or chili lime grilled corn on the cob Simple salads like our spring mix salad or baby kale salad Soups like our grilled corn chowder, gazpacho, or avocado soup Vegetable sides like sautéed asparagus, garlic parmesan zucchini, or blackened cauliflower
