Baked Chili Dogs With Mayo Pico De Gallo Food

CHILI CHEESE DOGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a 9x13 inch baking dish add the hot dogs. Put the hot dogs into the bun.
• Evenly top with the chili or homemade chili and shredded cheddar cheese.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes until cheese is melted and heated through. Top with optional toppings.

MEXICAN HOT DOGS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees. Tightly wrap each hot dog with a strip of bacon until most of the hot dog is covered. Transfer hot dogs to an aluminum foil-lined baking sheet. If using jalapeños, place them skin-side down on a separate aluminum foil-lined baking sheet and lightly drizzle with oil. Roast jalapeños until skin starts to blister, about 25 minutes. Roast hot dogs until bacon is browned and starts to ripple, about 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add the yellow onion and cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to brown and shrinks by half, about 10 minutes. Stir in bell pepper and the remaining 1 tablespoon oil; season to taste with salt. Remove from heat when onions are caramelized and peppers are soft, about 20 minutes.
• Make the pico de gallo with avocado: Combine tomatoes, avocado, red onion, cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl. Season to taste with salt and set aside.
• Toast buns, if desired. Blot excess oil from the hot dogs with a paper towel and transfer to buns. Top with onions, peppers and pico de gallo. Drizzle with ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. Finish with roasted jalapeños, if desired.

HOT DOGS WITH PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor charcoal grill or a gas grill to medium heat. You should be able to hold your hand 5 inches above the coals for 7 to 9 seconds before it becomes too hot. Or heat a grill pan on the stovetop over medium.
• Make the pico de gallo by combining the tomatoes, onion, jalapeños, cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl. Season with salt and mix well. Taste and add more lime juice and salt, if desired.
• Butterfly the hot dogs: Slice them in half lengthwise without cutting all the way through the skin, then open them so they sit flat. Place them on the grill, cut-side down, and cook until grill marks appear, 3 to 5 minutes. Flip the hot dogs and cook skin-side down until the skin deepens in color, 2 to 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, open the hot dog buns and spread the mayonnaise on the cut sides, if you like. Grill, cut-side down, until toasted, 1 to 2 minutes, then flip and grill until lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
• Place the grilled hot dogs in the toasted buns, cut-side up, then pile the pico de gallo into the butterflied opening. Serve immediately, with any remaining pico de gallo on the side.

BAKED CHILI HOT DOGS

PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• Mix 3 chopped tomatoes, 1 diced seeded jalapeno, 1 diced red onion, 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, 1/4 teaspoon ground cumin, and salt to taste.

PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• Add all the ingredients to a medium bowl, and toss to combine. Cover and chill until ready to serve. This salsa can be made 4 hours ahead.

PICO DE GALLO

Steps:

• Dissolve chicken bullion in heated lime juice.
• Add all ingredients together and toss. The longer it sets, the better the flavors blend. The bullion, lime juice and cilantro measurements are estimated. Adjust to your own tastes.
• Optional: Depending on how hot you like it, you may add 1/2 to 1 extremely finely chopped habanero or bonnet pepper. **Use caution when working with the peppers or you will regret it later. Try to use gloves.

"CHILI DOGS"

Steps:

• Combine the refried beans, chilies, 1/4 cup water, and optional cumin in a medium saucepan. Cook gently until heated through.
• Warm the hot dogs according to package directions. If you'd like, warm the rolls (not necessary if they are fresh).
• Place a hot dog in each roll and spread plenty of the chili sauce on either side of it (about 2 tablespoons per serving). If using tortillas, place a hot dog toward one edge of the tortilla, spread the rest of the tortilla with chili sauce, and roll up. You will end up with more chili sauce than you will need-save the rest for making simple burritos later in the week or use as a bean dip for tortilla chips.
