Panchos Argentinos (Argentine-Style Hot Dogs) image

Panchos are Argentina's take on hot dogs-a street-food staple that features a vast array of toppings. Condiments typically include mayonnaise, mustard, and chimichurri. We swapped out the chimichurri in favor of a fresh salsa criolla, which takes just minutes to make with easy-to-find ingredients. It tastes even better the longer it sits.

Yield 6 hot dogs

Number Of Ingredients 13

For the Salsa Criolla:
1 small onion, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 small green bell pepper, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1 small tomato, seeded, finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
Juice of 1 lemon
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
For the Hot Dogs and Assembly:
8 uncured natural casing all-beef sausages (such as Applegate)
Mayonnaise (for serving)
4 hot dog buns, split
Yellow mustard (for serving)

Steps:

  • Make the Salsa:
  • Mix onion, bell pepper, and tomato in a large bowl. Add oil, vinegar, and lemon juice, then toss to combine. Taste and season with salt and pepper, then toss again.
  • Do Ahead: Salsa can be made 5 days ahead. Transfer to a jar or airtight container and chill. Let sit at room temperature at least 30 minutes before using.
  • Make the Hot Dogs:
  • Slice sausages in half lengthwise, going almost all the way through so they can be opened like a book, but are still attached on one side. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high until hot. Working in batches, cook sausages cut side down, weighting down with a spatula or a small pot lid and turning once, until slightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Smear a generous amount of mayonnaise on both sides of buns. Arrange 2 butterflied hot dogs on each side of buns, cut side facing the bread. Top with mustard and a generous amount of salsa.

These hot dogs were just okay. The chimichurri sauce was a bit bland and the hot dogs were overcooked. I would not make these again.
