Perritos calientes petardos llenos de sabor

Ingredientes

• 8 all-beef hot dogs
• 8 soft hot dog buns, lightly toasted
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons sriracha sauce
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (or pepper jack)
• 1/2 cup diced red onions
• 1/2 cup sliced jalapeños (optional)
• Fresh cilantro leaves

Preparación

1. 1

   Make the Firecracker Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, honey, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and fresh lime juice until smooth. Adjust the amounts of sriracha or honey to suit your spice and sweetness preference.

2. 2

   Prep the Toppings: Dice the red onions, slice the jalapeños (remove seeds if you prefer less heat), shred the cheese, and roughly chop the cilantro. Set all prepared toppings aside for assembly.

3. 3

   Heat the Grill: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, approximately 400°F. If using a grill pan on the stovetop, heat it over medium-high heat until hot.

4. 4

   Grill the Hot Dogs: Place the hot dogs onto the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally to achieve an even char and crisp snap without burning or drying out.

5. 5

   Toast the Buns: During the last 2 minutes of grilling, place the buns cut-side down on the grill to lightly toast and warm them.

6. 6

   Assemble the Hot Dogs: Spread a generous layer of firecracker sauce inside each toasted bun. Place a grilled hot dog inside, then top with shredded cheese, diced onions, jalapeños, and fresh cilantro leaves. Drizzle additional firecracker sauce on top if desired for extra flavor.

7. 7

   Serve Immediately: Serve the hot dogs hot off the grill to enjoy the melty cheese and vibrant sauce at their best.
