Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a small bowl, mix 1/3 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp Dijon mustard, 1 tsp hot sauce, 1/2 tsp paprika, 1/4 tsp garlic powder, and 1 tbsp lemon juice until smooth to make the remoulade sauce. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  2. Step 2: Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add 12 oz sliced andouille sausage and cook for 5-7 minutes until browned and slightly crispy on edges.
  3. Step 3: Slice 1 French baguette lengthwise without cutting all the way through to create a hinged sandwich. Lightly toast the bread if desired.
  4. Step 4: Spread the remoulade sauce generously on both sides of the baguette.
  5. Step 5: Layer the cooked andouille sausage evenly inside the baguette, then top with 1 cup shredded iceberg lettuce and 1 large thinly sliced tomato.
  6. Step 6: Season the tomato slices with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper for brightness. Close the sandwich, slice into portions, and serve immediately.
