Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces hot dog buns
- 4 pieces hot dogs
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 small onion
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons pepper
- 4 tablespoons ketchup
- 4 tablespoons mustard
Instructions
Chop the small onion finely and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a pan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion to the pan and sauté until the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and pepper, cooking for an additional minute. Remove from heat.
In the same pan or on a stovetop grill, add the remaining tablespoon of butter. Place the hot dogs in the pan or on the grill and cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally until browned and heated through.
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Place the hot dog buns on a baking sheet, and place a slice of cheddar cheese inside each bun.
Add the cooked hot sausage inside the cheese-lined buns.
Spoon the sautéed onion evenly over the hot dogs.
Place the baking sheet in the oven for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
Remove from the oven and drizzle ketchup and mustard over each hot dog.
Serve hot and enjoy your cheesy hot dogs!
