Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Chorizo sausages
- 4 pieces Hot dog buns
- 1 cup Chihuahua cheese
- 0.5 cup Red onion
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro
- 2 pieces Jalapeños (pickled or fresh)
- 2 tablespoons Mayonnaise
- 1 piece Lime
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat.
Slice the red onion into thin strips and set aside. Finely chop fresh cilantro. Slice jalapeños thinly for garnish.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise with the juice of half a lime. Set aside for the zesty mayo topping.
Add a tablespoon of olive oil to a small skillet over medium heat. Sauté the red onion strips until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Set aside.
Grill the chorizo sausages on the preheated grill for 5-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked and slightly charred. Remove from grill and keep warm.
Spread butter on the insides of the hot dog buns and lightly toast them on the grill, about 1-2 minutes.
Place each grilled chorizo sausage into a toasted bun. Sprinkle the chorizo with Chihuahua cheese and allow it to melt slightly.
Top each sausage with sautéed onions, sliced jalapeños, fresh cilantro, and a drizzle of the zesty lime mayo.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for an extra squeeze of flavor. Enjoy your Chorizo Sausage Chihuahua Dogs!
