Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces hot dogs
- 4 pieces hot dog buns
- 2 ears fresh corn on the cob
- 1 cup canned black beans
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 piece fresh lime
- 2 tablespoons cilantro (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup sour cream or mayonnaise (optional, for topping)
- 0.5 cup shredded cheese (optional, for topping)
- 2 teaspoons butter (optional, for corn)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Brush the corn ears with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sprinkle them lightly with salt and pepper.
Place the corn on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally until the kernels are nicely charred. Remove from the grill and let it cool slightly.
While the corn is grilling, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the canned black beans (drained and rinsed), smoked paprika, ground cumin, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir and cook for 5 minutes, then set aside.
Juice the lime and set it aside. Once the corn is cool enough to handle, slice the kernels off the cob using a sharp knife and add the kernels to the black beans. Mix well and stir in the lime juice and chopped cilantro.
Place the hot dogs on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until they are heated through and have grill marks.
Lightly toast the hot dog buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes, if desired.
Assemble the dish by placing a grilled hot dog in each bun. Spoon the grilled corn and black bean mixture over the top, and if desired, garnish with a dollop of sour cream or mayonnaise and shredded cheese.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Sizzling Franks with Grilled Corn and Black Beans!
