Total Time: 25 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 4 pains à hot dog
- 4 saucisses de boeuf
- 1 tasse de chili
- 1/2 tasse d'oignons hachés
- 1/2 tasse de fromage cheddar râpé
- Moutarde au goût
- Sel et poivre au goût
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 4 hot dog buns, 4 beef sausages, 1 cup of chili, 1/2 cup of chopped onions, 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, mustard to taste, and salt and pepper to taste.
- In a medium-sized pot, heat the chili over medium heat. Stir occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot. Allow it to simmer for about 5-7 minutes or until heated through.
- While the chili is heating, bring a pot of water to a boil. Once boiling, carefully add the beef sausages to the pot. Boil them for about 5-7 minutes until they are heated through. Alternatively, you can grill or pan-fry the sausages for added flavor.
- While the sausages are cooking, prepare the hot dog buns. You can lightly toast them in a toaster or on a skillet for a few minutes until they are golden brown and warm.
- Once the sausages are cooked, remove them from the pot and place them in the toasted hot dog buns.
- Top each hot dog with a generous spoonful of the heated chili, ensuring it covers the sausage well.
- Sprinkle the chopped onions evenly over the chili on each hot dog, adding a nice crunch and flavor.
- Add shredded cheddar cheese on top of the onions, allowing it to melt slightly from the heat of the chili and sausage.
- Finally, drizzle mustard over each hot dog to taste. You can also add salt and pepper as desired for extra seasoning.
- Serve the Coney Island hot dogs immediately while they are hot, and enjoy your delicious American-style meal!
Tips
- Choose Quality Ingredients: The flavor of your Coney Island hot dog largely depends on the quality of the sausages and chili. Opt for high-quality beef sausages and a rich, hearty chili for the best results.
- Customize Your Toppings: While the classic toppings are delicious, feel free to get creative! Add jalapeños for heat, diced tomatoes for freshness, or even a drizzle of barbecue sauce for a unique twist.
- Toast the Buns: Don’t skip toasting your hot dog buns! A little crispiness adds texture and helps hold up the chili and toppings without getting soggy.
- Grill for Extra Flavor: For a smoky flavor, consider grilling the sausages instead of boiling them. This will enhance the overall taste of your hot dog.
- Serve with Sides: Pair your Coney Island hot dogs with classic sides like coleslaw, potato chips, or a refreshing salad to complete your meal.
- Make It a Feast: If you’re entertaining, double the recipe and set up a hot dog bar with various toppings and condiments. Let your guests customize their own creations for a fun dining experience!
