CHILI CHEESE DOG BOATS RECIPE BY TASTY



Chili Cheese Dog Boats Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: hot dog buns, butter, garlic, fresh parsley, cheddar cheese, chili, hot dogs

Provided by Alvin Zhou

Categories     Dinner

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 hot dog buns
¼ cup butter, melted
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped, plus more for garnish
8 slices cheddar cheese
15 oz chili, with or without beans
8 hot dogs

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
  • Leaving them attached, place the 8 hot dog buns in a 9 x 13-inch (22 x 33-cm) baking dish. Cut a rectangle in each hot dog bun, making sure to stay 1 centimeter from the edges. Push down on the bread cut-out to compact it tightly into the bottom of each bun, making sure to press down on the bottom edges as well. This will help create a larger space for the fillings and reduce mess.
  • Mix the butter, garlic, and parsley in a small bowl, then brush the buns and their hollowed insides with the garlic butter. Bake for 5 minutes to toast the buns as well as help the sides of the buns firm up so they don't collapse under the weight of the fillings.
  • Place a slice of cheddar cheese inside each bun, then spoon a bit of chili inside each one. Slide a hot dog snugly on top of the chili in each bun, then top with more chili.
  • Bake for 20-25 minutes, until the cheese is golden brown and the chili has started to brown. Top with fresh parsley, then slice the hot dog boats along their connected seams to serve.
  • Enjoy!

CHILI CHEESE TATER TOT CASSEROLE RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Chili Cheese Tater Tot Casserole Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by jab120638

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 bag (32 ounce) tater tots
1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 medium onion, chopped
A few shakes of Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 teaspoons cumin
8 ounces tomato sauce
8 ounce can of water (use the empty tomato sauce can)
2 cups (8 ounces) Cheddar cheese, shredded
Sour cream (optional)
Green onions, sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees fahrenheit Arrange the tater tots in the bottom of a 9x13-in. baking dish. Bake for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook and crumble the beef with the salt, pepper and onion until the beef is no longer pink. Drain if necessary. Return the mixture to the skillet. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cumin, tomato sauce and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency. (I like ours the consistency of Sloppy Joe's, but make yours how you like it). Top the baked tater tots with the chili. Sprinkle with the cheese. Return to the oven and bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through. To serve, top individual portions with sour cream and green onions, if desired. The chili cooks while the tater tots partially bake .... but if you really wanted to, you could use canned chili instead and save yourself that step - although, I highly recommend making the chili yourself. It just tastes better in my humble opinion. I did not put beans in this ... but if you want to, feel free to add a can of drained and rinsed beans. A few shakes of Worcestershire sauce Preheat oven to 400°F. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, cook and crumble the beef with the salt, pepper and onion until the beef is no longer pink. Drain if necessary. Return the mixture to the skillet. Add the Worcestershire sauce, chili powder, cumin, tomato sauce and water to the skillet. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until it reaches your desired consistency. (I like ours the consistency of Sloppy Joe's, but make yours how you like it). Top the baked tater tots with the chili. Sprinkle with the cheese. Return to the oven and bake an additional 10-15 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the casserole is heated through. To serve, top individual portions with sour cream and green onions, if desired.
