MEXICAN HOT DOGS



Mexican Hot Dogs image

If you've ever walked through the streets of Los Angeles late at night, you may have been lucky enough to happen upon a street vendor selling bacon-wrapped hot dogs piled high with caramelized onions, sautéed peppers, pico de gallo, avocado, ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise. This version of Mexican hot dogs, also known as street dogs or Los Angeles hot dogs, is believed to be a riff on a similar recipe that originated in Sonora, Mexico. In Los Angeles, they're sometimes fried on a mobile D.I.Y. griddle made with a wheeled cart, a large sheet pan and a heat source underneath, but we don't recommend trying that at home. For this recipe, a standard sheet pan and an oven will do.

Time 45m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 hot dogs
8 bacon strips
4 jalapeños, stemmed, halved lengthwise and seeds removed (optional)
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for drizzling (if needed)
1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
1/2 small red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1/2 small green bell pepper, thinly sliced
Kosher salt
8 hot dog buns
Ketchup, yellow mustard and mayonnaise, for serving
3 plum tomatoes, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 avocado, diced
1/2 small red onion, diced (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup chopped cilantro

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.

A family recipe passed down from my Grandmother - this beef mix makes good hamburgers, and a pretty decent meatloaf. Use your imagination for different toppings (such as salsa or Campbells Pepperjack Cheese soup for your meatloaf) Both - freeze well for future use

This is a Midwestern version of Mexican lasagna. It's easy to prepare and even easier to tailor to your taste. Alter this by using different types of Doritos®, chiles, and by adding additional seasoning to spice it up. Serve with pico de gallo and sour cream.

AUTHENTIC MEXICAN HOT SAUCE



Authentic Mexican Hot Sauce image

This is my version of my favorite taco wagon's 'earthy' hot sauce of which I can never get enough. It is a little time consuming, but well worth it. I put it on everything from eggs to tacos, quesadillas, and salads. You can use any combination of chiles (cascabel, chipotle, Californian, New Mexican). For a hotter sauce, you can use all hot New Mexico chiles or add a few dried arbol chiles. For a tangier sauce, add the juice of 1 lime.

Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 dried guajillo chile
1 dried chile negro (pasilla) pepper
2 dried New Mexico chile pods
1 ½ cups warm water
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon white vinegar

Steps:

  • Remove stems and seeds from the guajillo chile, pasilla chile, and the New Mexico chile pods.
  • Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Toast the chile pods in the skillet until lightly brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the chile pods to a small bowl and pour the warm water over them. Allow chiles to soak about 40 minutes.
  • Remove the guajillo and New Mexico chiles from the water. Use a spoon to scrape the pulp from the skin. Discard the skin. Place the pulp of the guajillo chile and the New Mexico chiles in a food processor with the pasilla chile and the water in which the peppers soaked. Puree in the food processor until all ingredients are combined. Add the garlic, cumin, salt, brown sugar, salt, and vinegar. Puree the mixture until smooth.
