Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 hot dogs

Number Of Ingredients 8

Neutral-flavored oil, for frying
2 jalapeño peppers
1/2 cup whipped chive cream cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 beef hot dogs
4 split-top hot dog buns, preferably sesame seed or poppyseed, toasted
6 ounces nacho cheese sauce, warmed
1/2 cup chopped store-bought fried jalapeños or fried onions

Steps:

  • For the spread: Put about 2 inches of oil in a small saucepan and line a plate with paper towels.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat until swirls appear on the surface of the oil, about 5 minutes, then add the jalapeños. Fry until they begin to wrinkle and the thin outer skin begins to separate, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on the lined plate. Let cool slightly, then chop finely, removing seeds if you'd like less heat. Fold together the jalapeños, cream cheese and salt and pepper to taste in a bowl.
  • For the hot dogs: Cook the hot dogs in the same frying oil until they plump and begin to blister, about 5 minutes. Remove and drain on the lined plate. Slather the insides of the warm hot dog buns with the cream cheese mixture, then add a hot dog to each and top with a drizzle of the nacho cheese sauce and a sprinkle of the chopped fried jalapeños.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality hot dogs: Use premium hot dogs made from quality meats and spices for the best flavor.
  • Use fresh jalapeños: Fresh jalapeños provide the best flavor and heat. If you prefer less heat, remove the ribs and seeds from the jalapeños before stuffing.
  • Stuff the hot dogs evenly: Make sure the jalapeño poppers are evenly stuffed with cheese and other fillings to ensure they cook evenly.
  • Wrap the hot dogs tightly in bacon: Wrapping the hot dogs tightly in bacon helps keep the fillings secure and prevents them from falling out during cooking.
  • Cook the hot dogs thoroughly: Cook the hot dogs until the bacon is crispy and the internal temperature of the hot dogs reaches 165°F (74°C) to ensure they are safe to eat.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Serve the jalapeño popper hot dogs with your favorite toppings, such as ketchup, mustard, relish, or sliced pickles.

Conclusion:

The jalapeño popper hot dogs are a delicious and fun twist on the classic hot dog. They are perfect for parties, picnics, or a quick and easy meal. With the right ingredients and a little bit of effort, you can easily make these tasty hot dogs at home. Experiment with different cheeses, fillings, and toppings to create your own unique variations. Enjoy!
