Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 gluten-free hot dog buns
- 4 gluten-free hot dogs
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 2 medium tomatoes, diced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup ketchup
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup potato sticks (batata palha)
- 0.25 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Instructions
Begin by heating a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil.
Once heated, add the chopped onion and red bell pepper, sautéing until the onion is translucent and the peppers are soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic, diced tomatoes, salt, and black pepper to the skillet. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the tomatoes begin to soften.
In a separate pot or another section of the skillet, grill the gluten-free hot dogs on medium heat until properly heated through, about 5-7 minutes, turning frequently.
Meanwhile, prepare the gluten-free buns by slicing them down the middle, ensuring not to cut all the way through.
Spread a layer of ketchup and mayonnaise inside each bun according to taste.
Place a hot dog inside each bun and top with the sautéed onion and pepper mixture.
Add a generous handful of potato sticks on top of the onions and peppers.
Finish by sprinkling with chopped cilantro for a fresh touch.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Gluten-Free Cachorro Quente!
