Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces grass-fed beef hotdogs
- 8 large leaves romaine lettuce leaves
- 1 medium, sliced thin yellow onion
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 8 pieces, halved cherry tomatoes
- 1 large, julienned dill pickle
- 4 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium heat.
In a large skillet over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons of avocado oil. Once hot, add the sliced onions and sauté until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 8 minutes. Season with sea salt and black pepper. Set aside.
Place the grass-fed beef hotdogs on the grill. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure they are evenly charred and heated through.
While the hotdogs are grilling, prepare the toppings. Halve the cherry tomatoes and julienne the dill pickle.
Lay down two large romaine lettuce leaves for each hotdog, overlapping them to create a sturdy base for your hotdog.
Once the hotdogs are cooked through, place each hotdog into the bed of romaine lettuce.
Top each hotdog with caramelized onions, halved cherry tomatoes, and julienned dill pickle.
Drizzle with a tablespoon of Dijon mustard on each hotdog.
Wrap the lettuce leaves around the hotdog and toppings, ensuring all ingredients are secure and ready to enjoy.
Serve your Paleo Classic Grilled Hotdogs immediately while warm.
