Time 55m

Yield 24 servings (2 franks per serving)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 quarts neutral frying oil
One 12-ounce can smoked cocktail franks, such as Hillshire Farms
One 8.5-ounce box corn muffin mix, such as Jiffy
1/2 cup reduced-fat buttermilk

Steps:

  • Insert a toothpick lengthwise into the center of each cocktail frank, leaving about 1/2 inch of toothpick exposed.

CHEESY JALAPEñO CORN DOGS RECIPE BY TASTY



Cheesy Jalapeño Corn Dogs Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: hot dogs, thin slices of cheddar cheese, all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, salt, black pepper, milk, egg, jalapeño, peanut or vegetable oil, mustard, wooden skewer

Provided by Hector Gomez

Categories     Dinner

Yield 4 serving

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 hot dogs
4 thin slices of cheddar cheese, room temperature
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup yellow cornmeal
¼ cup sugar
4 teaspoons baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 jalapeño, minced
1 qt peanut or vegetable oil, for frying
mustard, for serving
wooden skewer

Steps:

  • Place a hot dog on a slice of cheese, then roll the cheese slice around it. Push a wooden skewer through the cheese-wrapped hot dog, then place seam side down on a baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs. Freeze for 20 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, add the dry ingredients and stir to combine. Once fully combined, mix in the milk, egg, and jalapeño. Stir until the batter is smooth and without lumps. You may need to add 1 or 2 tablespoon of flour; the batter should be thick enough to cling to the hot dog. Pour it into a tall glass for easier dipping.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot until it reaches 350°F (180°C).
  • Holding the tip of the skewer, take a frozen hot dog and dip it fully into the batter, lifting it out, then rotating it to let excess batter drip off. Using tongs, carefully place the battered dog into the hot oil. Hold it fully submerged for 30-60 seconds until a crust forms, then rotate it so that it fries evenly. Cook for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining hot dogs. Serve with mustard for dipping.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn on the cob for the best flavor. If using frozen corn, thaw it completely before using.
  • Grate the cheddar cheese finely so that it melts evenly throughout the cornbread batter.
  • Add chopped jalapeños to the batter for a spicy kick. You can also use other mix-ins, such as cooked bacon, crumbled sausage, or chopped green onions.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this will make the corndogs tough.
  • Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the corndogs. If the oil is too hot, the corndogs will brown too quickly and the inside will be raw. If the oil is not hot enough, the corndogs will absorb too much oil and be greasy.
  • Fry the corndogs in batches so that they don't overcrowd the pan. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Drain the corndogs on paper towels to remove excess oil.
  • Serve the corndogs hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as ketchup, mustard, or ranch dressing.
